If there's a private auction that follows the lottery, and that is only open to accredited registries (who meet certain requirements, like registrars have to), why would ICANN necessarily participate in the funds flowing from the auction (above, say, some set fee)? Just wondering. This is like the secondary market in domain names question. These questions are posed in my individual capacity, and not on behalf of anyone else. I want to make sure everyone understands that I'm looking for information here. Susan
