Agree with Malcolm's points.  I would suggest:

ICANN Inc. to refer to the corporation including both the staff and the
Board.
ICANN Organization to refer to the staff only (from the CEO down) but NOT
the Board


SO: This works as well, but it then mean that ICANN would imply the trinity
(community, Board, staff)

Regards


Also  agree that the Empowered Community is the entity.
EC SOAC Appointees (or Representatives) could be used for the individuals
serving as the "body" of the EC at any given time.

Also, it's possible that John Curran was asking where the IETF and its
participants would fit (i.e., are they within any "sphere" defined by a
particular term?).  In that sense, similar to  Avri, I would say that the
IETF and its participants are members of the ICANN Wider Community,
individually and as IETF.

I'm mulling over whether there is something in the relationship between
ICANN and IETF that makes that a less than perfect fit, but it's eluding my
grasp....
