Of course what I was getting at in my previous email here, which is what it
is but I forgot to mention the word, is a _delegation_ protocol/framework.

governments may (and will be encouraged to) sign as a way of recognition of
the selected country law to govern ICANN matters?

governments who are willing to engage fully with ICANN and even assume
responsibility within the organization to have a formal ground and
framework to do so with regard to the governing law.
