              update - not only on IANA, but also new gTLDs. Among the
              tricky IANA aspects: "How to ensure that stakeholder
              groups – supporting organizations (SOs) and advisory
              committees (ACs) in ICANN parlance – would have standing
              under California law to enforce the changes to the bylaws;
               How to incorporate the Government Advisory Committee
              (GAC) into the new ICANN structure without increasing its
              power relative to the other SOs and ACs; and,  How to
              resolve outstanding questions regarding the potential for
              lawsuits that could impact the SOs and ACs."  A CCWG
              proposal for an ICANN membership structure bit the dust in
              Buenos Aires, and we are pretty much back to the drawing
              board on this.   On gTLDS, issues such as .amazon,
              .wine/.vin, and .sucks were discussed. Enjoy!</div>
