Just a simple question : why has ICANN consistently avoided involving registrants (and I do not mean only large domain owners - aka domainers - or commercial companies) ? After all, registries or registrars are supposed to have direct means of contact (Whois registration or billing info among other) with individual registrants. Why not agree that they would send a simple email inviting registrants to participate in ICANN's activities / structures. Is it because that would be considered spam ? I would not see why. Isn't that the best way to broaden representation ? Although I'm not sure that participation of the different stakeholders should only be weighted in relation to how many people they "represent". Has NCUC explored this ? And rejected it for some reason ?
