I support a rebid not because I expect the DOC to generate or
negotiate a better structure next time but rather because the
current ICANN structure lacks any form of accountability. Rebids
might be a way of compensating for this severe shortcoming. In the
unlikely case that we succeed in achieving a rebid, ICANN's
successor might be less indifferent with regard to proper procedure
and consensus assertions.
