Re: [ga] ICANN Sunrise Policy at work...
Don and all former DNSO GA members or other interested stakeholders/users,
Your absolutely right here Don. And I believe as a UK citizen
Richard has been told this before and whom he should direct
such complaints towards. I know I have told Richard how, whom
and where before on more than one occasion. Embarrassing
ICANN is not a useful tactic as many of the BoD and staff have
no shame... But indeed are shameful none the less..
