  Yes this prevailing attitude from the ICANN DoD and staff has been long
held.  From you comment/statement here that attitude seems to yet
remain.  However it happens that a broad cross section  of stakeholders
do not share your attitude or opinion in this respect, as well as with
the DNS as a whole.

  Thank you for advancing this dialog.
  Decentralization in the ccTLD community seems to be very advantageous
to the stakeholders by in large, but not in every case or with every ccTLD.
Some within the ICANN staff and BoD of course take a strongly different
view or attitude, as it seems you do.  However it is obvious that with gTLD's
decentralization as to management and stuartship has many worthwhile advantages
on both a commercial and non-commercial standpoint.  Most of these
advantages have been discussed to a very great degree and are pretty
widely known.  Perhaps some review on your part ALejandrlo would
be useful and helpful as a refresher.

  Byt the DNSO's own opinion, do you mean just the constituencies
own opinions or the majority of the stakeholders decided opinions?
