  The <icann-board@icann.org> Addr was added by me Patrick.  I did so
so as to keep the BoD advised of the inane practices of SELECTIVE
CENSORSHIP that the DNSO GA ex-Chair and Ex-Altchair had imposed
against my self and the exclusion of a number of other participants to the
GA List with rules which is posted to all of the GA participants.  It is
commonly known as "Routing around Damage" approach to illegitimate
set of rules that the current GA list situation is unfortunately saddled with.

  Yes it should, your absolutely correct.  So should participation on the
DNSO GA List with rules.  As well as the rules should be a reflection of
the GA by vote.  Currently this is decidedly NOT the case, hence the
need for "Routing around Damage"...

  Which list?  There are two.  Which leads to the confusion and is a significant
part of the existing problem.  Hence again, the need to "Route Around Damage"
approach so as to have any participant's voice and ideas be read/heard.

  In you opinion maybe.  Others obviously disagree.  Hence again the "CC's".

  I am subscribed to the GA-Full as well as the GA with Rules.  Yet only the
GA with rules is posted to the address ga@dnso.org.  And again the crux of the
problem requiring for some posts to "CC" the other known participants.

  How magnanimous of you!
