Approve .xxx without further process or delay.

Dear ICANN,

I urge you to abide by the declaration of the Independent Review Panel and sign 
a registry agreement with ICM without further delay.

The independent review is the final accountability mechanism for ICANN that was 
devised by ICANN. If you do anything but accept the full results of that 
review, you are undermining the foundation of trust granted to ICANN by the 
Internet community.

ICANN has to prove that it is accountable if it is to continue to be credible 
as the overseer of the domain name system. Picking and choosing elements of the 
Panel's declaration, or adding unnecessary procedural steps in adopting the 
review's findings, would be a clear sign to the global Internet community that 
the organization cannot be relied upon to do its job fairly and objectively.

Make the responsible choice by approving .xxx now.

Colin C. Small
