Re: [ga] serious participation in ICANN processes

Just because ICANN wishes to say the sky is pink and blue pinstripe, doesn't
mean it's not blue... just take a look out the window.

Must we rehash this?  Although the Bylaws may contend the ICANN has no
members, the FACT that the ATLARGE puts DIRECTORS on the BOARD, who may
participate in and qualify for quorum requirements, and thereby influence
the allocation and distribution of Corporation assets, speaks for itself...
ICANN does in FACT have members.
