Thanks for sharing this, Andy. This appears to be a major governance failure on the part of ICANN (sadly, not for the first time). I'm glad Wikimedia is among the first orgs on this list.
I don't think it's too late to stop this, especially as all evidence points to corrupt inside wheeling-and-dealing. I would normally not link to El Reg, but the connections Kieren has dug up deserve further investigation by more reputable outlets.

Utterly unacceptable attempt to enclose the commons. Please do help continue direct attention to this.
Warmly,
Erik
