Re: [ga] Top Level Domain Association - NO CONFLICT OF INTEREST

[Eric Dierker <Eric@hi-tek.com>]

I am sorry but I have not seen anything about the man JW.  Where I come from a man
who stands for nothing will fall for anything.

It seems as though Mr, Corliss stands for himself, regardless of affiliations.

If this seems rude I apologize but are we just supposed to know Jonathan?

And no I do not want to hear from his friends and I do not want to hear his past,
but since he does not contribute I want to hear his ideas.

Keep in mind this is from someone that was kept from being a candidate by Mr.
Alternative Chair.

He does not contribute to this list so Who is he?, He did not attend Melbourne, and
he is not a member of the WG-Review. I have not seen his name mentioned in
establishing an@large.  Yet he got the endorsements necessary. JW help me out here,
who are you? You never know I may love you, but being a super secret candidate is
hard on us.

Sincerely,
