Dear Milton,<br>
<br>
sadly, I see that we have diametrically opposed views of the
potential for politics of a multistakeholder model. It has been
shown time and time again, in the real world, that concentration of
powers breeds lack of accountability and an increased risk for
misuse of such powers. A more balanced group restores internal
checks and balances that makes the work of the group more objective.<br>
<br>
Simply said, it's the difference between an authoritarian regime vs.
a democracy. Spread the responsibility/roles and you'll have better
accountability.<br>
<br>
Kindest regards,<br>
<br>
Olivier<br>

everything affects everyone, in some way or another. But the
strength and directness of the effects vary greatly. Do you
deny that IANA performance affects registry operators more
directly, and more materially, than it affects anyone else?
If it is appropriate for the CSC to be registry-led, why is
it not also appropriate for a separation process to have
strong direct customer participation? Chuck is not even
demanding majority on this entity, just stronger than
proposed. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span
style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">Another
issue you may not be attuned to is the possibility of
political games being played. Though I agree that the IFR
needs to be rooted in the broader MS ICANN community, I also
recognize that the broader the representation on a committee
is, the easier it is for its agenda to stray into areas not
directly related to IANA performance.

did not say that IFRT should be largely composed of
ccTLD and gTLD registries. I simply said that the IFRT
composition should have stronger participation of ccTLD
and gTLD registries than is proposed currently. If the
IFRT is doing a separation review, it is more important
than ever for there to be strong direct customer
participation. I fully agree that IFRT must be M-S.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

I cringe at this. If the decision for separation is to be
decided by the IRFT then it will need to be accepted by all
SOs & ACs & the group needs to be multistakeholder.<br>
The CSC is already Registry-led, and quite rightly so.
Separation does not solely affect direct customers. It is
such a large step, it affects everyone.<br>
