I was not pointing out the IETF's role.  I was pointing out that Karl is 
refusing to take a technical matter to the appropriate technical body.


However, concerning Marina del Rey:

I was not aware that the agenda for ICANN meetings needed to be approved by 
the PSO.  I also was not aware that the Marina del Rey agenda was 
established by Stuart Lynn by himself.

Part of the time will probably be tutorial, yes.  I suspect that more 
tutorial work is needed than will be provided.  From the kinds of comments 
that have been made in the NCC, it is clear that many participants to not 
understand the nature of system-wide security.

However I believe that the primary purpose of the security track for Marina 
del Rey is to develop community discussion -- and perhaps consensus -- 
about DNS security issues and recommendations.

When a new topic is discussed by a group, the beginning always has 
tutorials.  This permits people to learn about the topic in general and it 
permits them to learn about each other's perspectives.  If you object to 
this, I cannot imagine what alternative you would suggest.
