Re: [ga] UDRP Task Force Questionnaire

[Jeff Williams <jwkckid1@ix.netcom.com>]

Roeland, Kristy and all assembly members,

  I completely agree with Roeland and Kristy's concerns here.  It
also shows clearly that the ICANN BoD and staff's supposed concerns
about security when using a well known file format (.doc) is also
well known to carry viruses.  So much for me believing that the
ICANN BoD and staff know anything at all about what they are
talking about concerning security...  :(   This is a very sad example
of "Cluelessness"...
