[council] RE: ICANN Board resolution on Vertical Integration - dated 5 Nov 2010

Hello Kristina,

Thanks, Bruce. I don't see anything on the BoD page or in the resolution that identifies which directors abstained because of a conflict of interest. Can you share any information on that point?

Well speaking for myself, I was not in the room when the issue was discussed, or when the issue was voted on. I saw the resolution at the time it was posted to the ICANN website. There were a few other directors that work for private sector companies that also were not involved in the discussion or voting. A mixture of voting and non-voting directors. I will let the minutes of the meeting document who they were, as I certainly didn't take names. Regards, Bruce Tonkin
