[alac] Public comment on contract renewals

There are now 430+ x3 public comments on the contract renewals, many of them apparently from people speaking as individuals (possibly encouraged or prodded by other entities, possibly independent). <http://forum.icann.org/lists/biz-tld-agreement/>, <http://forum.icann.org/lists/info-tld-agreement/>, <http://forum.icann.org/lists/org-tld-agreement/>.

The obvious question is why these individuals have no way to raise their concerns more directly in an ICANN policy process or with the Board on an ongoing basis. The subordinate question is whether ALAC can do better at working with people directly, rather than through indirections on both sides.
