Re: [ga] RE: Public forum for comments?

[Jeff Williams <jwkckid1@ix.netcom.com>]

Stuart and all assembly members,

comment-reform@icann.org is a web based forum.  Many times
referred to as a "Black Hole" type forum.  I believe that something
more substantial with an archive should be provided.

  I also am on the ICANN Announce list and did not see
any announcement to notify anyone of this "Black Hole"
type of comment forum for the Reform effort.  Please
advise if an when such an announcement is to be forthcoming.

Thank you in advance for you cooperation.
