Hi Evan NCUC and I believe NCSG would support a joint letter to the board expressing our shared concerns about the funding limitations, albeit preferably sans references to be disgusted etc. Shall we constitute a drafting team? Best Liaison Bill On Dec 13, 2011, at 9:12 AM, Evan Leibovitch wrote:
I know we should be happy for even getting this far -- that ANY assistance is offered -- but I am disgusted at the opaqueness of the debate. The bottom up process, done as designed, has either been enthusiastically endorsed (ALAC, GAC, NCUC, NPOC -- all the public-interest constituencies) or passed without comment (the rest of GNSO). There has been no active argument presented against the recommendations. We have tried to anticipate objections in the JAS documentation yet have never been able to openly confront and respond to the opposition. It's a small victory for At-Large getting anything, but a major fail for ICANN's claims of policy-by-consensus and transparency.
