I see this as a way to allow NANOG to help channel some of ICANN’s incredible excess of funding

I suspect that if you think that this will make it rain, you will be sadly disappointed...

I don’t expect it will do any good at all. I hope that it will be slightly less damaging than the things ICANN
usually spends money on.

I trust NANOG to be less destructive than ICANN and as near as I can tell, this partnership is mostly ICANN funding
and NANOG doing.

I hope this don’t ruin nanog meetings

You mean they could not come together enough to share even the same page yet even a domain name or central corporation to oversee these needs ?
