This is becoming a real pattern. ICANN does not have the capacity to make needed changes in the UDRP, to alter Whois policy, to enforce or even implement the changes in Whois policy that it has agreed to make, to implement a TLD addition policy, and now, apparently, it can't even do simple protocol parameter assignments in a timely fashion. What CAN it do?

IANA request fulfillment response time has been inferred to as being used to [ahem] 'motivate' ccTLD administrators to establish some formal MOU with ICANN.
Sounds to me more like there is consistency in the dissatisfaction of the pace to which requests are acted upon.

"Announcing the final passage of the organization's 2004-2005 budget, ICANN's vice president of business affairs Kurt Pritz told ComputerWire that expansion is still a priority, but much of the cash originally planned has been allocated elsewhere." ...
Pritz said the organization is considering two African offices, two in Asia-Pacific (ICANN CEO Paul Twomey's native Australia seems a slam-dunk here) and two or three in Latin America, in addition to the two existing offices.
ICANN opened its first international office in Brussels almost a year ago, and last December said it would have facilities "in all the regions of the world" within six months. Twomey already spends a lot of his time working in Australia.

RIPE.NET has just migrated their web-site to put
the past business (IP address blocks) on the
back-burner and to prepare for the big win of
the .NET TLD.
The IP address block leasing business has no
future because ISPs will not pay for something
that is free. Unlike ICANN, ISPs consider all of
their bottom-line expenses.
RIPE.NET is now poised to be part of the more
generic business as shown on their new site:
"Internet resource allocations, registration services and co-ordination activities that support the operation of the Internet globally."

RIRs grabbing ALL of the IPv6 address space,
to protect it of course.
http://www.iab.org/documents/correspondence/2004-0 7-16-iana-delegation.html
"The NRO EC (comprising the CEOs of each RIR) met with IANA and ICANN staff on 31 August, in Nadi, Fiji."
"expressed a concern that the RIRs have not been delegated the entire IPv4 unicast space and therefore should not be delegated the entire 6to4 space. He proposed delegating to the RIRs only on a /8 basis, as the /8s are allocated."

Where is the ICANN Staff ? ("on vacation") .TRAVEL anyone ?
http://gnso.icann.org/mailing-lists/archives/regis trars/msg02375.html
"I've requested that ICANN instruct me on how to "shutdown" a registrar as I
have several clients that would now like to "leave" the registrar business
before Nov 1, 2004. I've been told that Ellen Sondheim is on vacation and
won't be back before the 20th leaving only 10 days for ICANN to process an
"application for de-creditation."
