Folks,
I feel that the ICANN community is currently lacking a place for
reasonable online discussion -- all there is is icannwatch and a
couple of blogs; the GA list seems mostly dead. As an experiment,
I've set up a moderated mailing list named icann-people; please join
at <http://lists.does-not-exist.org/mailman/listinfo/icann-people>.
Thomas,
Just two simple questions:
1. Why did you discontinue to host www.democracy.org.nz which contains IDNO
archives and pointers to the IDNO archives?
2. In your goodbye letter to the ICANN -Europe list that you also recently
discontinued you mentioned several blogs and fora.
Why did you not mention icannatlarge and its webfora?
I'll run the list the autocratic way: No message is distributed
unless I, personally, believe it is appropriate, and reasonably
relevant to the ICANN community. I'm specifically *not* doing this
wearing *any* hat but "too long-time ICANN participant."
Your frustration stems from a feeling of having been conned?
Or from an inability to find support from the others who are "too long-time
ICANN participants?
When (if?) enough people have come together, I'll send an initial
posting to let subscribers know.
(As I said, this is an experiment. It may quite well fail.)
What will you consider success?
In other words: what is the mission statement of the list-owner-without-hat
(beyond conducting an experiment)?
Best regards,
