[ga] |Going forward towards a Registrant's Constituency

[sotiris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

First, let's thank Joop for offering up the IDNO charter for us to use as
a basis for an RC charter.

Next, let's get one piece of fundamental business out ofthe way. When i
voted in the ICANN 2000 AtLarge election, it was only after my identity
had been verified and a letter had been sent to my physical address with
my acct/password info for voting day. In order for us to move forward on
creating an RC we need to VERIFY that the prospective membership is who
they say they are. Fortunately, there are many options available for us
today. My preference would be for a digital certificate. Does anyone have
any problem with being required to provide proof of one's identity in
order to participate in a Registrant's Constituency? If anyone does have a
problem, the solution is simple, they can form their own constituency of
non-identities. I am willing to put the work into an RC but only with
other verified individuals. So, who's willing to join me in this
endeavour?
