Since a lot of this seems (at times) to be an ICANN vs. NSI power struggle,
I think it's unfortunate that instead of trying to set up ICANN as some
kind of "government," the NTIA/DoC didn't just try to set up a competitive
registrar system for .com, .net, and .org directly.  It could have been
conducted openly, with RFCs and other opportunities for public comment.
Also, we would have all known who was responsible for making the decisions
and what their authority was.
