Agreed.
It also goes towards why Afilias was chosen, irrespective of the TLD.
Remember, the board was throwing out applications based on the TLD selected, yet Afilias got in even though they had their TLD changed at the last minute.
The allegation that Afilias was a shoe-in, and the sunrise provision was part of the deal that was brokered rings absolutely true to me.
I hope this lawsuit makes it all the way. My fear is that ICANN will trot out the tired old Stability of the Internet argument, and convince the judge that even if they're all guilty as hell, the judge can't do anything about it, as bankrupting Afilias will harm the stability of the Internet.
We all know it's crap, but the judge won't.
I think it's time for some of the lawyers who help run ICANNWatch to write a friend of the court brief. Hmmm?
