"While generally supportive of private sector management, some stakeholders
have urged abandonment of ICANN in favor of a new private sector entity. At
this time, the Department considers this approach premature. ICANN is
attempting to reform itself and the preliminary efforts of the Committee on
Evolution and Reform show some promise. Starting over with a new entity
would likely raise many of the same systemic problems that ICANN is
currently in the process of tackling, as well as some issues ICANN may
already have successfully addressed. Accordingly, the Department believes
allowing time for the ICANN reform process is warranted."
