Re: [ga] Proposed Amendment to the ICANN Bylaws on Director Term Alignment

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

Patrick, Louis and all assembly members,

  This again would seem to be another "Moving of the goal posts"
move or provision that would limit the potential impact that new
At-Large elected directors could have on ICANN policy rather
than an improvement to the management of ICANN itself.
I find it a very thinly vailed attempt to "Hood Wink" the
stakeholders...  Louis, you should be ashamed!
