I have interests in this at two levels, first respect to the resulting 
process for handling auction proceeds (without expanding ICANN staff :-( 
), and second as a development economist. I am willing to be pressed 
into whatever hard labour is needed here.

I hear the business community suggesting, in effect, "It is our money 
and we would like it back". My presumption is that if there is business 
consensus on that position they would resort to a private auction, and 
if it is an ICANN auction, broader public interest objectives should apply.
