The comparison seems inappropriate to me. When developping standards,
you have time (you know what happens of IETF milestones...), you are
not connected to a production system, you do not implement the
standard (or you are paid for that) so you can be sure that operations
people will take care of the details. It is less damaging if you do it
badly. Here, we are talking of something far more operational, with
possible direct consequences to one of the crucial components of DNS
security.

Frankly, I feel that ICANN claims about its commitment to "security
and stability" are hard to take seriously, after this statement of
interest.
