Re: [ga] IANA is a function performed by ICANN

[Jeff Williams <jwkckid1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jefsey and all former DNSO GA members or other interested stakeholders/users,

 The ITU on this very forum has shown it's true colors with some careful
questioning and prodding.  See archives.  The ITU's history has been one
of solving few if any problems, and overkill or under kill on addressing
recognized issues or concerns.  They either incorrectly wish to swat
flies with a sledge hammer or beat bears into submission with a willow
switch.  Such contrary behavior is long standing with the ITU as many
or some here know full well.

  Joop rarely knows of what he speaks.  His IDNO history at a minimum
has proven that beyond any contrary repudiation.
