        The ability to create new TLDs should be left to the at-large
Internet community, and not controlled by anyone.

Perhaps with some restrictions (e.g. valid nameservers, reasonable
assurances that the right will not be abused), anyone should be
able to create their own TLD.        

That said, NO SUPPORT should be granted to ANY ICANN PROPOSAL
until ICANN implements some sort of at-large community involvement.
The way it stands now, everything ICANN does benefits only the
large corporate interests because the vast majority of Internet
users are NOT REPRESENTED AT ALL.
