Nick and all, Thank you for admitting that the chair is interested in censorship. Such a practice, as you should know is a very questionable one in that it violates IETF standard, is prelude to a waste of bandwidth, limits freedom of expression which is also a very questionable Constitutional issue/violation in the US, is not in keeping with the MOU, and serves as a significant potential for Forwarding to other recipients that would normally have been "CC'ed" in the original post, and BTW, "CC'ing" is not cross posting by definition, and also serves as an influence on additionally wasting electricity, which in the present resource conservation movement of such a resource gives the appearance of misuse under the law intentionally. In any event, and as a result of this belated notice, I shall resend my posts of today to ALL of the original recipients separately in accordance to this horrible and illegitimate notice accordingly.

Dear All:
In keeping with a request from the Chair of the ALAC, responding to many community requests, the total number of recipients of emails to the At-Large lists has been limited to five per email.
This is by way of helping to reduce crossposting and of multiple copies of the same message being received by recipients who are at the same time direct recipients of a message and mailing list members.
If you receive a bounce from the mailing lists, and you are subscribed and routinely are able to send emails to that list, please look at the number of recipients the message had. -- Regards,
Nick Ashton-Hart, Matthias Langenegger, Frederic Teboul ICANN At-Large Staff email: staff@atlarge.icann.org
