Re: [ga] Re: Board descisions


Roberto,
you asked the straw poll to be documented so you might
pile up the reasons. May be some kind of a short draft would
be of interest now. I list myself:

-  statu quo for org registrants and
-  no business take away
-  Registrar/Registry split for gTLDs
-  M$ 5 to non-iCANN managed non profit organization
-  M$ 200 endowment to be managed on public decisions
    according to the iCANN principles: to support competition,
    equal treatment to all

Do I miss one of the key issues?
Jefsey

PS. I am creating the ORGANIC association under the
       French non-profit law (100 years stability this year).
       Its purpose is to manage the ".org" registry in
       compliance with the iCANN and Internet community
       requirements and to participate to a competitive bid.
       I have the support of several organizations against the
       Digital Divide and the support to Developping Countries;
      SME and @large organizations.

       Please who ever is interested let me know. I am
       just assuming Secretariat. Articles, ByLaws, Chair,
       ExecCom etc... will obviously be voted by participants.

      (ORGANIC stands for .org associative network
       information center).
