Re: [ga] DNSO General Assembly call to change seating rule

Dave and all,

  I believe that D'Crock is right when he asks about the DNSO
involved in technical issues.  However maybe it should be.  If
the NC has a "Group" looking into the Whois function, than in
effect the DNSO is involved technical issues, at least indirectly
anyway.  However this activity may interfear with the IETF's
efforts with Whois.  As such, one than has to wonder why
the NC with Ken Stubbs at it's head, is involved in technical
activities such as the "Whois".  ????

  Possibly Ken can enlighten everyone in LA or here as well?
Ken?
