[CWG-Stewardship] Comments on principles

No matter how attractive it may be to think about subjecting ICANN to the

idea for everyone.   That said, no matter where ICANN is incorporated, it
can always agree that disputes will be resolved in accordance with the law
of a specific country and in a designated physical venue.
