JFC and all, Very good point on the travel expenses in your remarks below. However the rest of your remarks are simply nonsense. Bashing Danny on a personal level isn't reasonable. His previous remarks were valid all be them rather harshly expressed... However sometimes harsh wording is necessary in order to emphasize valid points...

Sorry, but this is a waste of money that will produce no beneficial results. Those that care make an effort to pay attention and manage to participate (as evinced by years of member participation in the GA that saw a subscriber list in excess of 1000 participants). None of them had to be spoon fed on the registrant's dime.

Or blocked by Danny's lobbying against them at NCUC :-) Danny, we all know you paid some of your travels as I did for all: shame on ICANN for that. But you cannot oppose when ICANN improves. ALAC has not the common duty you define as your lonely own. There are certainly other ways to make ALAC work, but these are those ICANN lead to. You cannot object for the ALAC demanding now, what you complained we had not for so long. You cannot ALAC wishing to do more than it does and taking the availble steps. No one demanded $ 7000 where the expence can be half of it. Take care. jfc
