   This can not be stressed enough.  It appears that the ICANN staff has
too much leeway in negotiating provisions of the agreement with
regard to (1) pricing (2) extension of terms and the like.
   ICANN should setup a policy for all the current and future registries
rather than negotiate with each in secret.
