Just for clarification - which are the "many constituencies that can't 
access its present structures"? There are at least a couple of places 
where civil society groups can become involved in ICANN.

I think that it might be more productive to actually involve more CS 
folks in ICANN, than just try to discuss ICANN at the IGF (even if you 
succeeded in winning the resistence to that, what would happen after the 
discussion? I really don't see feasible any political scenario in which 
ICANN would take directions from the IGF.). At the last ICANN meeting, 
between known faces scattered in corridors, there were talks of a fixed 
civil society meeting on the last day of every ICANN meeting - that 
might be a good point to start, for example.
