Subject: RE: [ga] CONFLICT OF INTEREST


> Disclosure of Patrick's role in the TLDA would not be mandated for an
ICANN board member unless there is a conflict of interest. Conflict of
interest usually means that the subject has a pecuniary interest in the
outcome of the activities that s/he presides over or otherwise participates
in.

> Pretend I'm stupid. Tell me how there is a conflict of interest here.
Please also tell me why we insist that the Chair of the GA should have been
born yesterday, with no baggage that might incline the Chair one way or the
other.

> Let me clarify something: I'm not a supporter of Patrick. I disagree with
his view of the relationship between the constituencies and the GA. But I do
not believe the process is well-served by trying to demonize Patrick.
