Re: [ga] .et wildcarded

[JFC Morfin <jefsey@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This means that comments, reporting requests etc. are interference in 
sovereign national management. This is explicitely prohibited by GAC 
and WSIS which prohibit the influence of a foreign country in the 
management of a national zone. As an US Citizen, Member of the US 
Civil Society, Danny Younger is fully legitimate in criticizing, 
intefering, hacking, etc. the ".us" zone. He is at least discourteous 
in negatively discussing any other national zone. This is something 
we all tend to forget and which is very negatively appreciated by 
national ccTLDs. This unfortunate attitude of us is certainly the 
main reason why the ccNSO includes a limited set of ccTLDs.  May be 
could we take advantage from this to investigate all the cases, 
documents, situations, etc. where ICANN and ICANN Community Members 
interfere with sovereign name spaces.

Actually, I think it could be a good occasion to investigate a job 
that could fall onto the GA's mandate. To create specialised 
investigation committees to report on ICANN wrongdoings or possible 
better doing. This would mean that remarks as the one Danny is 
talented could result from a group of persons having commonly 
investigated the issue (possibly with a dedicated site) and reported it.
