Hi Joanna --
For historical snapshots of ICANN and its precedessor, gTLD-MoU,
please visit, http://www.media-visions.com/icann.htm and my earlier
writings, http://www.media-visions.com/netdemocracy.html. We need
to know where we've been to understand where we are now or where
we may be going next. Perhaps my efforts (despite primitive layouts)
may educate you, so you can view ICANN with your eyes open.
