Dear all,
 
This petition, being circulated amongst some ICANN participants, may be of interest; it urges the Board to approve the new gTLD program when it has its special meeting in Singapore this coming Monday (20 June): http://www.petitions24.com/newtlds
 
It also touches on questions such as consensus, multi-stakeholder input and ICANN's credibility and accountability issues, which have been regular topics of discussion on this list.
 
Cheers
Mary
