<p dir="ltr">Hi David,</p>
<p dir="ltr">Just curious, why should the policy making body be fired? Does that not mean firing the entire community?<br>
What I think is important is the ability to fire the management (leadership) of the policy making body(when required) and that is being addressed within the CCWG.</p>

I think you're confused about the same thing I was confused about
earlier. There seems to be provision for ICANN, with community
input, to "fire" IANA and find someone else to perform the
functions that IANA will be performing - but there doesn't seem to be
provision for the reverse (i.e. for IANA to find a different partner to
perform the policy-making functions ICANN will be performing). Not
quite sure why that is, as in my view the ability to change partners
should be symmetrical -<br>

​You mean ICANN? Or am I missing something?<br>
​<br>
​CW's point is that, if separate, what's to stop anyone with a billion
dollars ​hijacking it for their own agenda? Presumably the ICANN
board is assumed to be harder to hijack because of established
accountability checks and balances. Why duplicate all that? Just
asking.<br><br>
Also, why is the IAB not a good candidate?<br><br>
