Thank you very much candidates for your statements! All very eloquent
and spot on at the same time. The fact that the opinions are also
converging gives a lot of trust in this team.
This do beckons me to ask a follow-up question:
Where is your position is most divergent from the other candidates? In
other words: what makes you different? Not in terms of style, but in
terms of content.
Thanks again very much in advance to the candidates.
Best,
Niels

ICANN should do only what it is legally compelled to do, and even that should be carried out with maximum transparency, and with appropriate resistance (appeals) if confronted with overbroad or unreasonable demands.
