I also agree.

Mr. Bildt would probably be a very interesting addition to the Board, and 
the Bylaws were probably written having ITU in mind (and no other bodies of 
the UN) and only information technology policy (and not real wars), but the 
letter of the bylaws is clear.

On a personal note... at this point I believe he is much more useful to the 
world spending all his energy solving the war in Kosovo than dealing with 
DNS. I would love to see him (and would fully support it) running for the 
next elections.
