[governance] What happened at the NARALO/ALAC/CCNSO?

I'm a bit concerned that people think any of this has anything to do with
ICANN.

It's a bit like blaming the Roads Authority because your car has broken
down.

Does this list think it would be of much benefit if I created a factsheet or
somesuch that clearly defines what ICANN does and does not do?

I knocked up some wording that I have been soft-testing here:
http://www.icann.org/participate/what-icann-do.html

Comments welcome.

McTim,
Most web-programmers will understand/see this,
Today most "integrated development environment (IDE)s"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_development_environment
contain or have plugins intergrated for Mobile devices.

The IDE's are what we use to build the net, the web-programmers tools,
and the IDE's dictate what technology the ISPs (Internet Service Providers)
Host.
[For example: .Net 3.5 or PHP on IIS7 or Lamp (the ISPs 'Package')] 

This trend began with wap, sms, xml technologies etc... it has metamorphosed
into
what we call today as Web/Enterprise 2.0 (Ajax / i.e.; XMLHttpRequest), 
which means basically the complied-programming (asp.net|php|etc) is a
server-side feed to the end users GUI via ajax for portability. In layman
terms: 
the websites (content) are now designed to server a greater variety of
devices
(terminals).

Telco's market "Services", believe me you the net will flow will emerging
technologies like Web 2.0, connected by the 700 mhz spectrum (wireless),  
it is the "last-mile" Internet connection out in the boonies. 
The final Push of the Content-Push

Why would you spend a minimum of 4.5 Billion dollars for a slice of the
spectrum, 
if it didn't connect to an Internet address? if it did not deliver web based
Content?
Stop into a T-Mobil or Cingular shop and  take a look at whats available.
All the latest devices are net accessible, and theres more to come!

Your counter argument is telling us that Icann has nothing to do with;
VoIP, Messaging, mobile streaming media experiences and the future
sea of applications.

Eyes-Wide-Shut, you haven't seen anything yet.
