I don't want to be picky, but some of us were at the workshop, and both I and Annette expressed some disagreement (personally) with the opinions of the panelists, for example suggesting that this point:
concerns of morality and appropriateness are better left to governments to manage in their own jurisdictions.
might actually lead to more censorship, nor less, encouraging countries to resort to national filters to prevent certain TLDs from being accessed by their citizens. In any case, I don't think that the opinions of the panelists represent an ALAC position, to be stated in public tomorrow, on a matter we never discussed: it's fine to report that we co-organized a workshop, but for what regards substance we should be exposing our collective opinions, not someone else's. So I think that we should rather work out a collective statement on the proposed new gTLD process, in the next few weeks, and stand by whatever common agreement we reach. -- vb.
