The only difference between MM position and mine is that he wants a
treaty to limit ICANN and I don't think that is neccessary.

We are both for "de-nationalisation".

Since it means the removal of unilateralism, and NOT
internationalisation via intergovernmental means, that to me defines
"de-nationalisation".

The ugly, dangerous process going on now in Dubai surely points out
that a treaty process is not a desirable means to achieve
internationalisation that we all seek.
