I am sure they do.

It may just not matter to the ones who are reading - after all these
sorts of issues will be the purview of the Coordination Group.  Or they
may be reporting back to their bosses, who don't assign the highest
priority to this issue.  When you come right down to it, there is no
aspect of this transition that someone somewhere isn't complaining
about.  They have to be doing triage on problem issues.

At ICANN, as long as the Board is happy, there is little we can do to
change staff's direction.  Perhaps the IETF Liaison to the Board is a
path you can use to communicate your feelings.

BTW, I think I may have lost the thread on this.  The thing we are upset
about is a mailing list?  If someone closed a list you all were
interested it, could someone just reopen another list somewhere else?  I
strikes me that there is no shortage of lists on this stuff.  I seem to
be reading email on the IANA transition and ICANN accountability on
nearly a dozen of them.

But as I said, I may have lost the thread on this conversation.
