Re: [ga] ICANN Meetups


Alex and all assembly members,

  Interesting that this would now come up yet again.  We [INEGroup]
suggested this in '98 and the than ICANN "Interim" BoD of which Esther
was COB, rejected the idea out of hand.  However [INEGroup]
has been doing these sorts of Meetups sense late '98, either
online or physically.
