[discuss] ICANN governance structure

["Kleinwächter, Wolfgang"]

His latest speech before the US Congress capture his main ideas about ICANN. Unfortunately the US Congress Website doesn´t work anymore. I have a paper copy but do not find now. Will scan and distribute it as soon I have it. Probably somebody else has the text.

I have no idea, but am aware of the Green Paper, the White Paper, and ICANN's
initial Bylaws as documents which reflect some of his views in creating a more
substantial structure for performance of the IANA tasks.
