The problem is that many in ICANN believe the new gTLDs and anything associated with them (such as the IRT) are blessed with an aura of fait accompli and anyone that slows down the process is persona non grata. Rod Beckstrom really needs to get a handle on this runaway train.

As many know, ICA filed a protest with the ICANN Ombudsman, to little effect, that the IRT was operating in violation of relevant ICANN Bylaws. There was tremendous push back against the process and the recommendations in Sydney from a broad array of individuals and interests, and compelling arguments made that its recommendations must go through the normal Policy Development Process. I'll be posting quite a bit this week on where things now stand with the IRT, and other key decisions made in Sydney,at www.internetcommerce.org over the course of this week. How the IRT Report is handled going forward will be a major test for Mr. Beckstrom and the ICANN Board. Meanwhile, it is absolutely imperative that those concerned by the Report file comments by the July 6th due date (http://www.icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-4-29may09-en.htm ) and consider attending one of the follow-up sessions in NYC, London, or other locales (http://www.registration123.com/ICANN/GTLD/).
