[Carlos Raul Gutierrez]

Dear Carlton, 

ICANN should be learning from past experience, and the long list of
activities show a great potential for conflicts of interest. 

If somebody still thinks that ICANN should go into subsequent procedures
with a one size fits all framework, i can only wish good luck. The
conflicts of interst may push ICANN towards implosion. 

I pesonally think that a categories based differrentiated approach for
subsequent rounds (.brand, .generics & . communities) would guarantee
ICANN a longer shelf life........

Anywhere else in Christendom and the known sensate world, those activities are the very definition of a regulator.

But to ask me to deny the evidence of my two lying eyes and what is plainly the case in reason and judgment is a bridge too far. The Christian bible has a line in it "in Christ all things are possible". I would add a caution to that declaration:  Save and except to take me for an idiot.
