[CCWG-ACCT] Blog: Working Together Through The Last Mile

I consulted  'Ruling The Root' (Mueller) to remind myself of how the 
IFWP ended.
(Milton, my doing that just earned you another royalty fee from a Kindle 
Edition purchase)

Chapter 8 is fascinating.

In my view, it documents exactly how the intention of the IFWP was 
subverted into the ICANN we have today despite the concessions made to 
the multistakeholder community at the time (though, admittedly, it took 
Stuart Lynn's regime several years later to excise the troublesome 
inconvenience of global membership and direct elections).

The quote

". . . (and the tight time line they imposed) made it difficult to 
rectify the situation" (8.2.5)

is one of particular note, I feel.


There's an old saying in Tennessee apparently . . .
