Danny and all, Thank you for making us all aware of this VERY interesting letter to Mr. Twomey and ICANN via the ISPCP rather than in a more open and transparent manner. I remain unsurprised, as do our members that ecta and ICANN continue to be less than transparent and open with the larger internet, user, and registrant community. As such I hope that Glen will put out an announcement regarding this letter and in doing so seeks the user and registrant community sector of the private sector as to their opinion on the contents and tone of this letter accordingly. I know that a good number of our members are ECTA members, registrants, and trade mark holders and do not share the ECTA's position and concern expressed in this letter from ECTA and none that I know of, or have heard of even, knew that this letter was sent or considered at any time. This therefore leads to the belief that the ECTA members were not broadly consulted before this letter was sent, and as such cannot be considered representative of the full or majority of the ECTA members accordingly. -----Original Message-----

The European Communities Trade Mark Association has sent a letter to Paul Twomey regarding GNSO improvements. It doesn't appear in the ICANN Correspondence pages, but may be found via the ISPCP list -- see http://gnso.icann.org/mailing-lists/archives/ispcp/msg00433.html
