Actually ICANN has already demonstrated an ability to carry ouit 
reform after the long ERP process.

As I already wrote you, the Board opinion can be expressed by its 
chair - that's not only normal, that's a must.
I can respond as an individual:
Which parts of the Tunis Agenda are you referring to? I can speak for 
the Internet Society of Bulgaria, which has a project on Internet 
Governance. We have proposed to interested parties, including 
Milton's IG project, to actively cooperate with each other. So far 
there has been only one response - from BlueLink, who maintain a good 
site about WSIS. I am still waiting to hear from others, who want to 
cooperate on this issue. The lack of such positive signals from other 
entities, involved in the IG and the IGF, is a sign that not 
everything goes well in the civil society.
