True, no need for us to add pressure on the TAS issue, I'm sure staff wants to fix it asap as opposed other issues we've presented. However, it is symptomatic and raises questions about the organization's staffing and ability to manage this technical expansion. Beau is right in that they started off sharing lots of info about the outage and then went dark. -------------------------------------------------- From: "John R.

And since -- as I have been asserting all along -- there is no end-user demand driving the TLD expansion, end users really don't care if the process if interrupted, let alone why.
Agreed. The domain speculators don't need any help complaining that they have to wait for another month.
I'd prefer that ALAC concentrate on issues that matter to the individual non-registrants that ALAC is supposed to represent and who have no other voice at ICANN (other than very indirectly via GAC.)
