Many people, myself included, raised the question of staff 
accountability - and also during successive ATRT sessions. And for 
reasons that are their own, others resisted this and thought everything 
hinged on the Board - how naive.

I recall responses separately made during the usual ALAC "grilling" 
sessions of the ICANN CEO at each iCANN meeting, of both successive 
CEOs, Fadi Chehadé and Göran Marby, and staff accountability was dealt 
with internally and that the CEO of ICANN is the warrantor of that 
accountability. Perhaps should you complain to the ICANN CEO about his 
organisation's alleged inability to take action in a reasonable time?

Kindest regards,

Olivier
