I think that is a great idea. It will silence much of the criticism
that the DNSO is closed. It will also be a good test for how the
general membership of the ICANN will work out. But then the GA also
needs to represent the people who do not come at the ICANN
meetings around the world. This means online discussion (mailing
lists) and voting.
