This is an interesting possibility, but you say that "The above is POLICY, and
cannot be ignored by ICANN. The review of the application would be withdrawn and
reconsidered.".The Reconsideration Policy states that "The Reconsideration Committee
will have the authority to: [...] determine whether a stay of the contested action
pending resolution of the request is appropriate, [...] and (v) make a recommendation
to the Board of Directors on the merits of the request.". To me this sounds like
the Reconsideration Committee can just decide that such a request is NOT appropriate,
and even if it makes a recommendation to the board, the board can just decide not
to follow the recommendation.
Am I missing something?
However it's worth a try,
and I think that IOD, as well as all supporters should contact the Reconsideration
Committee.
