But ICG has to submit something that achieves broad multistakeholder
support.  ICANN is in a position, if we insist on something they don't
like, to bring the whole thing to a halt a the ICG.  If the ICG
overrules and says, "Nope, gonna do it that way," then the NTIA
requirement for Internet community support will be demonstrably
missed.

People who think we get to choose whatever we want, regardless of how
acceptable it is to ICANN, have a different world-view than mine.
