You were not primarily requesting information.  the text I quoted (see 
directly above here) is judgemental and tailored to impune questions of 
ethics, or the like.  f

If you are insensitive to the challenging tone in your wording, a course in 
writing (probably best to focus on business writing) would be helpful.

(by the way, i tried to find a more neutral way to word the above, but your 
attempt at wide eyed innocence does not leave any choice.)

Clearly you should not be involved in discussions on an open email list, 
since you only will be satisfied by sitting in directly during the meetings 
that you ask about.

OIC.  You are so interested in placing your own interpretation on things 
that you are willing to invent interpretations to statements that provide 
no basis for the interpretations.

Thank YOU for the confirmation.

If you ever interested in serious discussion about serious ICANN issues, 
please do let us know.
