Re: [ga] Motion asking for GA poll on rebid of ICANN contract
Eric
I am part of AINC (Arabic Internet Names
Consortium) representing the Arab ccTLDs (
.ae, .eg, .mr, .ma, .sy, .jo, .kw, .sa, .tn, .dz, .su, .om, .bh .....etc). We do
contribute silently " no horns " to many organizations including ICANN to
serve and enhance global DNS operations specially in areas involving Arabic
Domain Names resolution & policies.
Do you represent any ccTLD or you are just an
ISP?

I must assume this is tongue in cheek,
People who toot the horn of more process needed should already be involved
in that process.
You have sat on the sidelines and not contributed (by the way there are
many alternatives out there but that is completely irrelevant as a request for
bid creates such things for us to chose from) this is not a political game any
more but serious business to get your people a vote in matters that count.
What group in the ccTLDs do you represent? Do you really feel secure
in the ICANN process? If you do have you signed a ccTLD, non service
agreement with them? If so why? If not, Why Not?
The timeline is perfectly reasonable because ICANN has set these matters in
process. Any later timeline means that it is meaningless. (who you
here for the forced timelines last year and the WG-Review timelines?)
Someone just duped you or you are being sarcastic or something else, but
this does not make sense given the scenario.
Best Regards, Eric

I agree with Marilyn &
disagree with the vote as presented to us, all this is obstruction of our
ongoing work. If anyone is sincere enough, then first we should have a
series of discussions and second the recommended ballot should have first
included couple well thought alternatives, well thought implementation plan,
management feasibility study, planned funding plan, action items, solutions,
management structure & background qualification and so forth in order to
justify why that any new body will be better than ICANN, more qualified or
can be up to the global challenges. Further, the timeline posted is
not reasonable at all and seems as bad as the vote ballot
itself. Maybe many of you don't agree with ICANN policy or strategy,
maybe we have grievances, some of us ccTLD managers have problems with
ICANN's decisions, but no one on the GA so far have even offered a logical
ICANN alternative or even suggested a qualified body to take on the task
from ICANN without disturbing our DNS operations. It is always very easy to blame
others and start red herrings to obstruct advancements, but it is very hard
to recommend and deliver suitable alternatives.Best

Subject: Re: [ga] Motion asking
for GA poll on rebid of ICANN contract I second all this. I
suggest that the icannatlarge.com presents this motion to its members
and they register on the GA to participate to such a vote. May be a
good occasion to have the GA list taking overt the ALSC list to be
closed? This a real occasion if everyone shares in it. Like for Plan

PLEASE
INDICATE YOUR PREFERENCE BELOW.
Mr. James Love, a member in good standing of
the DNSO's General Assembly, has made a call for action,
specifically stating:
"I move that the GA poll its members, to
record its views on whether or not the US Department of Commerce
should have an open competition for the services now provided by
ICANN. The rationale for asking for a rebid is that ICANN has
dramatically changed the initial terms of reference for ICANN, and
is proposing even further changes, which have met extensive
opposition in the Internet community. The rebid would allow the NTIA
to consider alternatives to the current ICANN plan for managing key
Internet resources.
The vote should be taken within 10
days."
