Subject: Re: [ncdnhc-discuss] CPTech statement on GA rebid vote
: Note the numbers: There were MORE yes votes, and LESS no votes for
: motion 2. How does that make "Motion 1" the "more important" one?
Thomas. In my opinion, Motion 1 was both more controversial and more
important. A direct request from the GA to rebid the contract is a dramatic
rejection of the ICANN reform process. You recognized this and campaigned
very aggressively against having a vote on Motion 1 for exactly that reason.
You argued time and time against that Motion 1 would destroy the GA. What
is the basis now for saying it wasn't important? I could get a 100 percent
vote that May 24, 2002 falls on a Friday, which is something that everyone
could agree upon, but it would not be particularly important. How do
you define "important"?
Jamie
PS... I'm glad that motion 2 also passed. I voted for it too. It says
almost the same thing as Motion 2, but it isn't as blunt. Motion 2 also
left out also provison on the need to protect "innovation, competition and
freedom." Does that mean these are not important values, because Motion 2
had the higher vote total? Or just that some people don't think they are as
important as others do? Motion 1 was a strong statement, and it received a
very large majority. That was important to us, and I think it will be
important to others also.
