I think ICANN did the less bad thing it could do, and in the overall
this is the best choice for all of us who own a .org. 
At the same time, this really casts shadows over the credibility of the
IANA Transition, and ICANN will have to think at how to better insulate
itself from any direct governmental control. Starting from twenty years
ago, a range of solutions has been proposed, from moving to classic
neutral countries (e.g. Switzerland) to establishing a U.N.-style host
country agreement with the U.S. I'm sure that many countries will raise
this issue again. 
Ciao,
