  Yes.  And the Announcement seemed pretty clear as well...

  Kent has a long history of not working and playing well with others...
This is well documented of course...

  Yes on a number of occasions.  Also well documented.

  Not surprising that a lobbyist for the failing AT&T, would have this
reaction...  The work now has been somewhat changed as a result of
this Announcement of Kents "Appointment".  As I understand it from
one BoD member, Karl, the BoD was not even consulted on this
appointment/hiring.  Given Kent's controversial history ( IAHC/gTLD-MoU,
POC, PAB, BC membership, Impersonations ect, ect) it would seem
that they will now need to look into this more closely.  More "Make Work"...
