Dear Mike,<br class="">
<br class="">
Stating that "The compromise of 2012 went too far kowtowing to government demands, holding the entire program hostage” does not seem accurate. As far as I’m concerned, the program went by pretty well for some few exceptions. Taking into account the opinions
 of other stakeholder groups is not holding the program hostage, is actually how the multistakeholder model works and how this group is supposed to work.  All opinions (not “demands”) are welcomed in this process and are the key elements of ICANN.<br class="">
