2.4. GDD President is Outside the ICANN Structure?

A different ICANN organizational chart demonstrates the seriousness of the issue. This one shows the GDD President completely outside the ICANN structure.

If this chart is to be taken on its face, compliance reports to the COO and the domain business is unaccountable to the CEO, or anyone else. ICANN staff has questioned the origin of this document.

The budget section entitled: 2.3-Support the evolution of domain name marketplace to be robust, stable and trusted includes the following budget line items: 2.3.10 New gTLD Program, 2.3.11 Next gTLD Round, 2.3.12 Outreach and Relationship Management with Existing and new Registry, Registrar Community, 2.3.13 Registrar Services, 2.3.14 Registry Services, 2.3.2.
