<div>Okay don't mind my legal illiteracy, does this mean
incoporation under a body like UN? how does/will this work
in a normal circumstances; How does the registration of a

International incorporation either follows a new treaty, or can be
under the UN....<br>

<div>Okay so you are referring to a separate body that does
what NTIA currently does? If i may ask, why do you really
think you could trust this new body that will oversight on
ICANN; who will oversight this new body you propose?<br>

That 'how will you trust' question can be asked in an infinite
regress. To break such logics, in political systems, oversight is
built through division of power - those who have raw executive power
get overseen by others, who are unlikely to be swayed by the
former's interests, and act per clearly laid out rules, and by
themselves do not have any or much executive power. In India, for
instance, the President has oversight over the parliamentary system
and the cabinet (including the prime minister), but in fact the
President is considered much less powerful that the prime minister,
and it is often
a job given to senior politicians who have to be retired
respectably.... Just making the point that oversight does not
necessarily means superior power, if the division of power is done
well, and there are well laid out rules, and judicial oversight.

<div>The board has oversight on the organization. Seats on
the board is filled by various SO/AC and also by external
people who are not affiliated with various SO/AC(nomcom
selected members). So my point was that there is already
some level of external oversight by the virtue of board's
composition.<br>

As argued in the article, the so called ICANN community is largely
inbred, has a very narrow base, and the interests of power and
career movements within the system, and in allied systems, are often
shared and inter-mingled to an extent that it does not at all make a
good model for internal oversight... Separation of oversight from
executive power is needed across groups that do not intersect and
intermingle in the way this inbred community does. And becuase of
these closely shared interests and perspectives they have developed
strong inclusion-exclusion boundaries, which would become even
stronger in a free floating ICANN without oversight....This is a
fault , to use the term again, with infinite regress logic, which in
absence of external oversight will keep becoming worse all the
time..<br>

Happy to clarify further if needed... parminder <br>

</span> My article is quite specific, for the 1400 words
that I had.... In fact it is your response to it that
requires specifics, and seems to be too vague. What
exactly 'representing both internal and external' and
'community' mean?<br>
