Speaking of icann - the icann election results appear to be out

<http://joi.ito.com/archives/2005/11/05/ icann_nomcom_announces_new_members_including_susan_crawford_to_icann_boa rd.html>

Susan Crawford on the icann board, and then there's an Iranian on the
ALAC.  I don't know the guy but he's probably just another iranian
citizen but given that he's from Iran, I wonder what the more
politically inclined of the icann / wsis etc watchers are going to read
into this situation :)  Whatever, but it'll keep IP, politech, circleid
and various blogs buzzing for a while I guess.

It would be interesting to know what he thinks the Internet is. It's more an idea than something physical. I don't trust ICANN and want to remove
the
design flaws that create a need for such a central policy body. I'm more
afraid of those who want to improve ICANN.
