I read many accusations to ICANN in this forum.However I understand that the "evaluation
team" is independent from ICANN! Am I wrong?!
Please read the "Note about Image
Online Design" in the application review:
"because of the large number of favorable
comments in the ICANN Public Comment Forum, the ICANN staff requested that the evaluation
team examine Image Online Design's application more closely in the evaluation process".
This
means (according to my understanding):
- The evaluation team did not consider
IOD's application for .web
as a good application (due to several reasons,
that we all do NOT
consider valid... :-)
- However, ICANN itself considers
IOD's application too important
to be dismissed.
In other words, ICANN
is NOT against IOD's application!
Just the contrary: I understand that ICANN is
defending IOD!
Am I wrong? Am I dreaming?
However, a careful reading of the
review confirms this.
