[At-Large] NTIA JPA Mid-Term Review Statement

[Brendler, Beau]

That's interesting..I blew right past the reference to the 2005
principles until Danny Younger called my attention to it and I looked it
up -- I assume you mean, "The United States Government intends to
preserve the security and stability of the Internet's Domain Name and
Addressing System (DNS)." 
The reference would appear to be the NTIA's assessment of its confidence
in the current ICANN configuration, yes? Maybe we should make it an ALAC
priority, and maybe even bring in some other people, to suggest a
"roadmap" for ICANN to get where it needs to be.

Hi Beau
The  bit that annoyed and frustrated me was this - Furthermore, NTIA
remains fully committed to the 2005 U.S. Principles on the Internet's
Domain Name and Addressing System.

So - no changes from June 2005. We all just wasted our time. They will
never let ICANN go - it has to get up and walk out.
