Re: [ga] Revised Agenda proposal
Javier,
Thank you for your response.
First, I have checked with Fay Howard, CENTR General Manager, and
she confirms to me that she had nothing to do with setting the schedule
for Santiago. She and I understand that the schedule was set by ICANN.
Second, my apologies that you took the use of the word "mockery" as a
personal insult. It certainly was not intended that way. Apologies to
anyone else who felt insulted. (It is a figure of speech intended by me to
indicate the inappropriateness of the decision to allocate only a day to
the DNSO GA.)
Nevertheless, it should be clear to everyone that a half-day is inadequate
for a General Assembly of the DNSO. Indeed, the majority of the
comments I have received agree with me completely on this.
I recognise that there may be practical difficulties in changing the
schedule at this stage, and that we may not be able to do it, but the
consensus so far is that at least a day is required. I will take this up with
the ICANN staff in the first instance and report back to the DNSO GA list.
