I suspect, from reading how carefully this

Unless I missed something, this is a rather
historic action. It is the FIRST time the
accountability powers given to the ICANN
community with its new Bylaws have been used
in a proactive way, and by the part of the
ICANN Community least expected to intervene
when not directly impacted. <br>
