Re: [ga] Re: "Alternative roots": a big technical failure
Hugh and all former DNSO GA members or other interested
stakeholders/users,
Very good remarks and/or observations here Hugh.
As many on this forum know and also have observed amongst many
more stakeholders/users, ICANN has as a non-profit organization has
broken it's contractual agreements [ White paper/MoU ] and has on many
more occasions in developing policy broken it's promises to all
stakeholders/uses
in favor of a small cabal or sometimes defined neophytes of dubious
creditability...
