I totally agree with Patrick. I would prefer that we try to help each other in doing better (I am not using intentionally the word performing, as we are all volunteers). I am sure that the newly (re)elected members - and the ones to come - will do their best efforts to speak on behalf of the worldwide end users.

How fluent one is in English makes a big difference in the way one can contribute. FWIW, I took the decision a long time ago to spend my vacations with my family, and not with my computer. So, I may miss a vote or two. I certainly would abstain to criticize the non-voters until I hear why they did not show up. Patrick On Fri, 26 Sep 2008 10:24:45 -0400, "Jacqueline A.

You are right and I wonder if it's as LACRALO says- the language issue - English speakers are better informed in advance of issues - these are not often covered in Spanish -language blogs, documents, news etc. LACRALO, it seems to me, gets most of its ICANN news from ICANN - NARALO has a LOT of other sources, and posts on NARALO list are sometimes forwarded to other regions, but still with no translation :( Jacqueline
