It is just so unfortunate the way ICANN is "acting" up. Even if ICANN
needed a forum (which I open-mindedly reviewed as I thought it's okay to
have options) I don't see any motive to shutdown the mailing list...unless
it is an attempt to discourage a broader discussion of the subject matter.
One would expect that ICANN will allow the coordination team do it's job
and not interfere!
More so the forum is not even independent of ICANN content/usage policies
as Andrew rightly observed. It is my hope that the coordination team will
do the needful.
