Declan:
The complaint is mistaken. ICANN holds open meetings, free to attend, with
open mike sessions for public comment. People have always been allowed to
distribute policy drafts, proposals, RFCs, resolutions, etc. The meeting is
not, however, a trade show, and we don't want companies to use it for
marketing purposes. So the distribution of commercial literature is
restricted to sponsors. That's SOP for meetings like this.
