Jeff,

Definitely a fundamental question, that was raised a long time ago and
never answered.  Better late than never.

But I want to understand this statement of yours better please:

>>  We have also heard from the ICANN Board that they may believe that
participating in private auctions with the sole purpose of losing and using
those to fund other auctions may not be as desirable.

Whe heard what from who, when and how, exactly?  Is that actually within
any formal Board Resolution or other policy document?

Thanks,
Mike
