Jamie and all stakeholders or other interested parties,

  Well this is not surprising either...  Or at least given ICANN's
History to date it should not be surprising.  The "Blueprint"

stated and observed publicly.

  In any event the "Borg-Like" attitude from the ICANN staff
and BoD are seeming the same old story and were obviously
not effected what so ever by the Senate hearings on June 12th is seems.
