I have yet to hear a strong reason for supporting Mechanism B - what is the rationale for it? There has not been a lot of engagement on the list on this topic either, so I do not agree that there is a consensus that we should be supporting that dispersement mechanism.

The 1) one is more easily accountable, but the latter really needs as independent and accountable process as it can get.

>>> Thanks, Rafik. I have been further reflecting on this comment and believe we need to revise Recommendation #1 to take a stronger position. I do not support either Mechanism A or B, and would prefer to see us support solely Mechanism C. This is because an independent ICANN Foundation with its own, independent Board of Directors would be more accountable than anything Mechanisms A (utterly unaccountable) or B (weak accountability structure) can offer.

I do not support this at all, and think it contradicts the rest of our comment where we speak to how funds were supposed to be sequested for charitable purposes.

I left the document on suggestion-mode to highlight the changes. I closed some comments that didn't lead to any change (you can still check them).
