Agreed! part of ICANN process should be, in a particular
situation, to assess whether or not a particular search for public
interest is appropriate for within ICANN. or whether ICANN and
others can help it find its appropriate process venue elsewhere.
Just because something Internet related is important (has a public
interest?), that does not mean it should be addressed within
ICANN. Also, that does not prevent the ICANN community from having
a voice in the dialogue elsewhere.<br>
