Quite a few people have voiced concerns over the last year or so with respect to ICANN’s staff retention. Any time the issue is raised during an ICANN meeting, however, the CEO and board have refused to entertain any discussion of the subject and cite “industry” statistics.

So how are they going to explain this one?

ICANN Europe was meant to be getting a new head honcho .. or so we were told by ICANN back in June…

It now turns out that he won’t be starting with ICANN next week.. and ICANN staff in Brussels have no idea what happened presumably because nobody told them ..

So losing staff before they even start working for them .. that’s pretty impressive!
