            Parminder, I see this as a request for opinions, not facts.
            The whole point of this exercise is to gain specific factual
            cases that show actual issues, not to provide people with an
            excuse to complain about what the “think are the problems.”

     Milton, you probably mean, you are against adding such a question
    :). I dont see you have any authority to reject anything any more
    than I have to reject your original formulation. <br>
    <br>
    Was not the community accountability mechanism instituted just on
    the basis of "what people think are the problems"? I saw no efforts
    to gather facts with surveys like<br>

      ability to use or purchase DNS-related services, has been affected

    <br>
    If any such known 'facts' exist I am unaware of them and will like
    to know. <br>
    <br>
    In case of the question of ICANN's jurisdiction of incorporation
    analytical facts are rather more evident, as raised in the civil
    society statement.<br>
    <br>
    The process we employ can lead towards certain kind of outcomes
    rather than others. And I see this particular process being aimed at
    foreclosing the jurisdiction of incorporation question. This is fact
    the "application of public laws question" because immunity from such
    application can be obtained even without changing ICANN's place of
    jurisdiction. <br>
    <br>
    Meaning ICANN can stay incorporated as US non profit in California,
    and it exempted from application form various public laws as per the
    US immunity act that I cited. I also said that, as far as I can
    understand, it is possible to keep the private disputes arising from
    ICANN's organisational system, including those about enforcement of
    community powers, to be subject to US/ Californian law, strictly
    only for such dispute resolution as per ICANN bylaws. We need to
    hear from this group why this is not possible or not preferred...<br>
