[governance] DMP} Statement on Process and Objectives for the Global Multistakeholder Meeting on the Future of Internet Governance

[Carlos A. Afonso]

I risk to be bitten by (no, not monkeys, Milton) scorpions here, but if
"removal of the source of authority from a single national government
and the linkage of its authority over the DNS root zone file to a global
polity" is achieved, the need to change/globalize/internationalize ICANN
(the organization) becomes a relatively minor issue, n'est pas?

fraternal regards
