The problem is not use of website or email it is that ICANN is going
well beyond the remit that the US Government set it to facilitate a
global dialogue to establish a post US governmental top down role.

ICANN has a vested interest in the outcome. It is not a neutral party.
It's conduct so far has determined the topics, the mechanisms, the
committees, the dialogue within those groups, the representation, and
now the communications tools all under its own direct management control.

This is not facilitation it is a blatant attempt to own the entire issue
from top to bottom.

The key response from IETF is some fraternal frankness that expresses
with clarity our requirements for Registry operations in future.  US.gov
has spoken now IETF needs to fill any policy void left for those
resources IETF is responsible for.
