Danny,
 
You might have a point there.  However, why did you not bring it up at the beginning of the process so that constructive progress could have been made on this and postings initiated?  Why do you leave it until the last minute and then try to throw up a road block?  Why use the complaint process when you could have been part of the solution?

Darlene,

The Call for Statements of Interest was not posted on
the NARALO website, it was not posted on the ALAC
website, it was not posted on the ICANN website;
neither was it posted on ICANN's public participation
website, nor in the ICANN Blog.  It was not in an
ICANN newsletter, nor in an ICANN news alert nor in an
at-large newsletter. 

Confining the Call only to subscribers of this list
was patently unfair and remains unacceptable.  A
complaint will be lodged.
