Wolf Ludwig and I pulled together the leaders of five working groups to produce a communique of substance and quality. He personally put it in the hands of Twomey and I did the same for Dengate-Thrush at the closing ceremony.
ALAC never received a written acknowledgement of receipt, let alone appreciation for the diligence.
I can imagine the interval between hand and bin could have been measured in minutes.
It's not even called a communique at ICANN.org so you won't find it if you look that way. Just
individual reports of the working groups, never acknowledged as ALAC advice or useful feedback of any kind. There were never referenced in any subsequent ICANN activity or decision.
Impact my eye. Hundreds of person-hours bypassed before our eyes.
