So what might this look like in the real world... " ICANN's policy making
processes to be accountable to global community of internet users
directly... including an assessment of the experience with the ALAC's
etc.etc.?

The options most people put forward are: 
 - oversight by one  nation-state (the status quo)
 - oversight by all nation-states on the basis of sovereign parity, as in
the UN system
 - or some hybrid, such as the EU proposal to create what was in effect an
IG "security council" of a few privileged states to provide oversight.

Advocates of denationalization reject all those options and believe ICANN
creates an opportunity for a new form of global governance organic to the
internet. They want ICANN's policy making processes to be accountable to
global community of internet users directly.
