If you want to delude yourself into thinking that ICANN cares about your opinion, my opinion or anyone else's opinion, go ahead. George Bush spent lots of time discussing the war in Iraq. Doesn't mean he cares what we think about it. But none the less, this might be good news. I don't know. I think we are missing the big picture all together (like usual) and that big picture is why ICANN is even being allowed to consider this to begin with?
The internet was never supposed to be commercialized. Oh well, too late un-ring that bell. The internet was also never supposed to be censored. It already is to a great degree (NeuStar stole some of my .us domains because they didn't like my use of the word "fuck") but its never too late to un-ring that bell.

Under what guise ICANN is allowed to keep these 24 supporting letters private is above and beyond me. Seems to me they should be public like everything else, so that the "community" can respond to them.
The very fact that those issuing letters of support are demanding they remain private, should show that they're afraid of repercussions, which should logically show that there is indeed a major lack of support in the sponsoring community.

NO! This is common sense! We cannot have any of it!
