But ga@dnso.org carries zero weight in ICANN discussions, so taking this discussion there is a total waste of time. If ICANN and IETF want the discussion to go elsewhere, then it will go where it wishes to go and not cave in to ICANN control (i.e., bottling up) of the discussion. Or, if you do not want to see other opinions or ideas, just put your spam filters to work, or subscribe to the CENSORED version of the IETF list. We like the way ostriches deal with things they do not wish to see ;-)...
