The deeper question is: is it really in the interest of the DNS
stakeholders to create a DNSO that is "compromised" from the start?
We are talking about founding documents, structures that have to outlast
personalities and that should be corruption-resistant.
Not small political issues that can be resolved by a bit of horse trading.
The best structure has to win the day. This should be first and foremost on
the minds of all participants.
