[lac-discuss-en] [NA-Discuss] "Chicken and Egg" Problem

[John R. Levine]

> I'm concerned about the very specific influence this creates if a registrar decides to drop all of their extra accreditations at once, pulling up to 4% ICANN's budget out from under the organization.

Given ICANN's large reserve account (if they haven't speculated it all 
away with bad investments) and the generally increasing income from 
everything else, I wouldn't worry too much about a 4% one time drop.
