>My understanding is also that the IGP/Milton will cover this in a
special 
>workshop on Tuesday. 

The workshop will discuss USG-ICANN arrangements mainly as they affect
root zone file management. And it is not IGP/Milton it is IGP, Govt of
Brazil and Third World Network who are all co-sponsors. 5 or 6 panelists
from the technical, law/policy world will be there.

In general, Adam's question is a good one: why given the centrality of
this issue (ICANN/USG relations) is the IGF distancing itself from it?
But if one grasps the politics, the question answers itself.
