Rod Beckstrom leaves ICANN

Apparently he announced his resignation a while ago, but I just heard about it now. I'm a little disappointed, since Beckstrom advocated for decentralization (he wrote The Starfish and the Spider), keeping governments out of ICANN as much as possible, and leaving law enforcement to more local organizations.

What do you think?
