Are you kidding?
" the most important decision that ICANN may ever make."
Are you f***ing kidding? The most important decision ICANN could ever make was its very early (if not first) one to expand the number of TLDs without apparent limit, thereby creating an inflationary market in silly names and allowing it to be exploited by unscrupulous money grabbers.
Allowing the sale of the current operator of one stable and respected TLD registrar is small change in comparison.
But, anything that makes ICANN look bad is fair game for some people.
