Who would run it? Who would decide its policies? How many endless streams of meetings would be required in order to get any kind of consensus, and who would pay for them?

This is where someone from InternetNZ should say: "It's our job. We'll do it."

From http://www.internetnz.net.nz/internetnz.html:

"The mission of InternetNZ is to promote and protect the Internet, ensuring that it operates in an open and uncapturable environment." With vast tracts of address space now falling under the control of a monopoly who have not demonstrated in the past that they know how to play nicely, it would be a good thing if some organization such as InternetNZ would step up to the plate. As for the policies and endless streams of meetings, they might actually be worth it in the end.
