Most systems that involve policy making bodies and implementation bodies seperate the two logically to allow some checks and balances - that is, in a system of governing, it makes no sense to consolidate the law makers and the law enforcers.
But, from their own 'Mission and Core Values statement':
Why isn't ICANN structured this way? How can they be a group that decides policy AND a group that implements policy? Doesn't this create an room for conflict of interest that ultimately leads to abuse of the system?
An atomic look-up operation allows an application to find out whether a file is opened atomically based on whether or not the file path is present in a file system namespace cache. If not, the file open request can be redirected, avoiding or minimizing impacts to the scheduling of various operations involved in executing an application
Oh shit, I think I've stolen it a hundred times:
snip:
class APalmCatCache;
class ALinkMasterCache;/snip
... except mine applies to db's - not filesystems.
Hey! wait! That is novel!

wouldn't it destroy the interoperability we have come to expect? If a precedent is set, would I have to ask permission to push packets through another's network? Is there anything we can do?
Lawrence Lessig Answers Your Questions: 3) The Judicial Branch Courts make illegal all sorts of technology... without any concern about whether such regulation will threaten cyberspace and free speech generally... I think the problem is that courts don't see the connection between certain kinds of technology and legal values... If courts could be made to see this, then we could connect this struggle to ideals they understand.

ICANN's Mission lies in the nexus between ICANN's technical coordination role, its operational role, and its policy role
