As I mentioned in my prior note, certain penalties are in the form of 
draconian excise taxes which may not be insurable.

But the other point is "acting within the scope of their directorship."

I maintained a public diary of what I did on ICANN's board.  (It is 
still online at http://www.cavebear.com/archive/icann-board/diary/index.htm)

I maintained that diary for a couple of purposes:

First was to communicate with the community of internet users.

Second was to create a written record, made in a way so that it could 
presumably pass any hearsay objections, so that I would have a concrete 
foundation for protection under the business judgment rule -
