technical charter, no broader authority

[Judith Oppenheimer <joppenheimer@icbtollfree.com>]

"Our charter is essentially technical and limited to a very focused area."
......... Esther Dyson, Interim Chair, ICANN, October 4, 1999 (quote in
Tele.com)

"ICANN has neither the authority nor the resources to be a consumer protection
agency, and in any event there are existing protections for abuses ... such as
better business bureaus, trade commissions, etc in most of the countries in
which domain name activity is present."
 ......... Mike Roberts, Interim President/CEO, ICANN, October 5, 1999 (email
message)
