John,
For the record, I still believe that 2050bis should be
published. Regardless of what I think of some of the things it
says, I think it is reasonably reflective of reality and that
reality is always worth documenting.
Thanks.
As to my more general comments, they were not really addressed
to 2050bis and I have no desire to start a discussion of them
here. However, some assertions about how well ICANN is working
were made on this list by people who do not usually participate
actively in IETF's technical work. In part because some ICANN
decisions and behaviors does affect the fate of IETF protocols
and the state of the Internet generally,
Ok. Understood.
I would welcome a discussion (definitely somewhere
else) about that difference in perceptions … That would
include an offlist discussion of why your perceptions and mine
may differ should you find such a discussion useful.
Fair enough. Hopefully some of that could be fed into ICANN as well.
(I should probably have indicated that my experience is very limited. I didn't
want to indicate that there are no challenges - I know there are.)
