What is missing is any question of the scope for ICANN Expected Standards of Behavior (ESOB). Are ICANN ESOB applicable outside of ICANN’s virtual boundaries; e.g. offices, meetings, discussion lists and all sort of venues in which ICANN work is being done. Are there boundaries in the world, online or offline, that are beyond the boundaries of the ICANN ESOB? Is the scope of the ICANN ESOB linked to contracting status?
Does ICANN have the same scope of governance being claimed by nations and intergovernmental organizations? Are there limitations?
I look forward to reading how the deliberations in the ICANN Board on the ICANN ESOB unfold over the next days and weeks.
