In my opinion, ICANN must respect transparency and  decisions which are
made. One should not want a thing and his opposite. If ICANN is claimed to
comply with the democratic rules, it must also be example of the
applications of these rules.

thanks Milton to call our attention in this process.

> ·         ICANN must respect the decision of the IRP panel.

> Please don’t allow ICANN to pretend that the public doesn’t want it to be
