Today's show has an ambitious agenda, and I don't do justice to any of the items. I'll be attending the ICANN Strategic Planning meeting this week on behalf of the At Large. I note an interesting new ICANN staff appointment and discuss Esther Dyson's view that ICANN is a  legitmate manager of the DNS precisely because it's illegitimate...or something like that. I also give short shrift to this comment on IDNs but promise to talk more about IDNs soon. (iPro Radio 47 / 10 Minutes) Header Music: "The Streetbeater" by Quincy Jones.
