Aedrew puts the finger into the right direction. There is a thread that ICANN pays lip service to the MSM but in reality overrides it with a day-to-day policy which ignores vboth a bottom up PDP as well as the positions of CS stakeholder groups. 
 
Another point is the HR dimension, however we should do this in a way which would ask qustions to ICANN and notm primarily to the local host.

Robin,

Perhaps not focussed enough, but for the ICANN Public Forum, I think a broad
discussion of the multi-stateholder model and threats to its dominance as the
primary means of Internet Governance (e.g. the GAC expecting the ICANN Board
to override bottom-up policy development and follow its "advice" instead; the
ITU's attempted land-grab for authority over the Internet; Staff tendency to
try to make policy on-the-hoof instead of following PDPs) would seem to be an
important topic to raise, not just the policy v implementation specific
debate.
