Jacqueline's suggestion is noted. I also do not think anyone is interested in a confrontation. It is useful to note however that in the past the Caribbean ALS have voted for our Latin American colleagues without hesitation, fear or favour. We could only hope that one of these days we would get a similar level of consideration.

So if we have 1 voted for from LA, we vote for the Caribbean candidate next time. My small contribution.

As we can avoid this? We cannot make a mechanism that it avoids the latinamericana imposition by simple demographic majority? How we fit the present rules of the regions of ICANN for or to share the positions or to negotiate a rotation that satisfies to all? It has a will to obtain it? My translation -- not machine today, thank you! Colleagues, Ím concerned we plows moving toward to another gratuitous andEnergy-sapping confrontation speaking Latin American between the Spanish/Portuguese THIN members and those from the Anglophone Caribbean countries. Dog we avoid this? To plows we able design to mechanism that avoids the imposition of the demographically dominant Latin states? To plows we able adjust, the even twist current ICANN region rules into to leadership sharing or rotation mechanism that we all dog live with? Do we have the will to engage in this task? Scott S.
