[ga] NC BS
Thomas's analysis of the recent NC recommendations is I
believe overly pessimistic.
The logic behind the recommendations is as
follows:
1. Identify the stakeholders who should participate in ICANN
policy development.
2. Factor those stakeholders into a policy
development body.
3. Have a consultation mechanism for the rest of the
world.
So, if we consider consumer/individual
user/registrants as stakeholders who should participate, let them do
so.
But let's not dismiss these principles based on the failure of
the status quo or questions about the administration of e-mail
lists.
