Re: [ga] [admin] Posting rights of Jeff Williams temporarily suspended

[Don Brown <donbrown_l@inetconcepts.net>]

Two months, really? I think that's stronger than nickle whiskey.

I think this is well beyond the spirit of the rules, too.

I don't even know Williams and I don't agree with what he posts much
of the time, but I do respect his individual right to be heard.

Consensus and censorship don't seem to compute, either.

This is a time when the GA needs to be pulling together, in light of
Accura and the indiscriminate and self-serving actions of ICANN.

Now is not the time to be implementing censorship or anything else to
divide the GA.

Don't kill the troops.  Lead them . . .

Thanks,

p.s.  This is #5 for me, today.  It will be better in the morning, as
they say . . .
