[governance] IANA transition - BR Gov comments on the CCWG-Accountability Draft Proposal

Mon Jun 8 18:48:01 EDT 2015

Perhaps I'm misreading something, but I read this document to make the 
following assertions:

1. All restrictions on ICANN's location must be removed.

2. ICANN does not have to leave the US but must be located in a place 
where the governing law has certain characteristics, including not having 
the possibiliity that courts overrule ICANN (or at least the IRP).

(And, as it happens, the US is not such a place....)

3. ICANN doesn't have to change its form, but it needs a form where 
governments are comfortable.

(And, as it happens, the corporate form is not such a form....)

What am I missing?
