What Paul Kane says in the article is correct - this is more an effort to get ICANN to improve its governance, while trying to avoid some of the more extreme measures being proposed such as country level IP address allocation. Creation of a new agency for spam and cybercrime issues would be a good idea - this is an issue where iana / icann has no role or mandate, and existing efforts (OECD, London Action Plan, civil society orgs like APCAUCE, industry orgs like MAAWG) are quite fragmented. regards --srs -- Suresh Ramasubramanian (ops.lists@gmail.com)
