Eric,

information is the difference between what you know and what you 
perceive, yet upto now people have considered information positively 
and confusion (contradiction between what you know and what you 
perceive), noise and disinformation as various forms of entropie 
(negative information). This helps ICANN (and many others).

Actually, in the conceptual dimension of information the range is not 
from silence to information, but from maximum information loss to 
maximum information acquisition. Noise being structural, confusion 
unvolontary, and disinformation planned. The ICANN communication is 
semantically noisy using a model of network outside of common 
reality, confused by lack of common pertinence and of coherence 
resulting from its ambiguious charter (a tiny spot of the namespace 
it wants to make a golden mine for some), and instinctive 
disinformation to screen its lack of identifed deliverable. All this 
because they have nothing to actually sell and however a long term 
plan of survival expenses : the less we need them, the more they have to spend.

They could however try to produce something useful people would 
really need. They have done something into that direction with the 
IANA but Google wants it. They have tried the gTLDs but had a 
conflict with technologies and GAC they tried to address with Fast 
Track. Their problem now is that no one believes they will last very 
long in their current status, due to the naming evolution decided by 
the RFC 5890 suites they do not even want to consider while it 
technically implies the end of the restricted DNS as we known it. 
Class IN identificative (authority choses) names' ISO and generic TLD 
is too small to resist against designative (I chose) and appellative 
(we chose) diferent types of domain names. For years I never use any 
kind of root server system (too risky!).
