Who says .museum is doing well? I'm betting that it turns into nothing but a front for museum shops and catalogs.

Take a look at the .museum site. There are many museums (not museum shops) using the domain. It looks like it will be a popular TLD for museums. This is a good model for how new TLDs should be introduced. Congrats to the .museum people.

There is already at least one commercial store under .museum: http://metropolitan.art.museum/store/index.asp
In other words we are already seeing evidence that the .museum TLD is just a high-class wrapper and facade for retail sales outlets.
And what has this to do with "technical coordination" or the "stability" of the Internet?

The store that mention is on a valid website for the MET in New York. The difference that you see with that these sites is they are used by museums and not squatters and speculators like in .biz and .info. .museum is already a success, and naysayers like you will always find something to belittle or gripe about. .museum= real websites & no squatters, .info= few real websites, lots of squatting.
