"Stability of the Internet", without definition, is a trump card ICANN can play at any time. This is an excellent example of this and why cooperative people and entities that have actually been the ones maintaining this stability for years and years won't sign agreements (absent of definition). For example, what is to stop a forced redelegation of a ccTLD down the road for some ambiguous reason of "Internet Stability"? Why would a country or ccTLD operator enter into a contract with this hole in it? If you are them, not a stable decision to make. It seems a pretty basic step for ICANN to define, with boundary, its decision-making jurisdiction with regards to Internet Stability for all to see. After 4+ years it has totally ignored doing so yet use the words over and over to justify its actions of the month. The result is no agreements from the cooperative entities that have actually maintained Internet Stability for the community. What a surprise. They just went through this whole reform process an no where in it did it suggest it should look to define Internet Stability towards its elusive goal of entering into cooperative agreements. It's just totally avoided and the results won't change unless through some means of force.
