Re: Re[4]: [ga] Funding of ICANN Board candidate travel expenses

["Rex T." <rex@traveling.com>]

I remember when there was no IDNO and this guy (Joop) spoke of the need to
protect independant domain owners, and how he would like to begin a
constituency for that purpose, and to build a real voting booth, etc.

I rember this guy campaining to bring the Unrepresented Domain Owners, and
to strive for true democratic process.

A few people heard the message eventually, and these things began to become
a reality.

I remember this person went to the meetings at his own expense to help all
of us.

I did not see anyone else making these sacrifices during the begining.

There wouldn't even be an IDNO if it weren't for his efforts.

I believe he deserves this.
