Richard, you remember Vixie's comments here a while back, right?  "I ain't
in it for your revolution."  What makes you think that if ICANN fails he
and the other root server operators are going to engage in some cyber-revolt?
And if they did, what makes you think that the rest of the net would follow
them?  People want things to work smoothly.  The current situation, while not
perfect, offers stability.  If there was some kind of cyber-revolt, most
likely the USG would step in and instruct the net to take their DNS from
sites that present the same level of coordination they currently enjoy.
