[governance] Re: Burr & Cade: proposal for introducingmulti-lateral oversight of the root

[Lee McKnight]

Hi Klaus,

I wasn't at the moment proposing anything specific, I just wanted to help folks see that moving ICANN's HQ is not really a solution, however one defines the problem.  And yes host country agreements have their own problems as Wolfgang and other's point out.  And there's worse legal frameworks than California non-profit status.  So no easy fixes here, but we knew that already.
