Re: [ga-rules] Daily post limits

Eric and all assembly members,

  I would not say that the Stockholm meeting is a sham, but it is close
to being such.  The various agenda's were well orchestrated, and some
11th hour agenda changes have been announced.  As such, it will be
more of a "SHOW" than a meeting, and due to the 11th hour agenda
changes, would be participants will be hamstrung as to adequately
address those 11th hour changes.

  The other problem I see with the Stolkholm meeting is two fold.
First, as with ever ICANN meeting/conference/show, there is no
legitimate @large participation platform, as there really is not @large
membership.  Second, the DNSO GA is in serious trouble of
surviving as the NC and the ICANN BoD has not and likely will
not pay any attention to the GA.
