Your opinions on ICANN.

[ftaylor]

Hey folks,

[100DNF$ for the best response!]

I am looking for your opinions on ICANN. I am meant to be writing an essay for a law class at university assessing ICANN, and I want to get a general feel for how the domain community and ICANN get along. I have never been involved with them.

• Do you know of any really crazy awards that have been made?
• Do you have any gripes with ICANN?
• What do you think of the WIPO process?
• All input appreciated.

I am not looking for anyone to write my essay for me. I may quote you if you have a particularly interesting point.

Thanks,

Finbarr

I like that expression. Care to elaborate?

ICANN?
Who's that?
A new type of diapers?

Icann is in bed with Verisign (Nasdaq: VRSN)

More greedy than domainers.

# Do you know of any really crazy awards that have been made?

In relation to what exactly?

# Do you have any gripes with ICANN?

It's too US-centric

# What do you think of the WIPO process?

What's that got to do with ICANN?
