The TLDA is a Georgia Corporation at this time.  Karl Peters set this up.

We are still incorporated in GA.

  John and all,



    I would be happy to help but I don't work for free.  Who's going to pay me 
how much

  for my assistance and what kind of assistance would the TLDA desire from me or

  anyone willing to help?  To expect free help in todays global economic 
situation isn't

  reasonable.  On the other hand gaining seed money for such after 2008 is 
extreamly

  difficult if not almost impossible.  That's just reality, however unfortunate.



    This said, I have always been as supportive of the TLDA as I can be and too 
the

  extent I could given I recieved no compensation for same and still believe in 
the

  very basic concept of the TLDA.  However as I stated above, I am willing to do

  only so much for free.  Any more than what I have tried to do will require 
mutually

  agreeable contracted compensation accordingly.  As far as I know now, the TLDA

  has no financing or the ability to gain a reliable capital source or sources.



  P.S. At one point some time ago I offered to help get the TLDA some funding

  as long as I was not responsible for the management of that funding once

  contractually secured and deposited in a account for use and or disbursment.

  That offer was at that time rejected.  Go fish!?  At that time to my knowledge

  the TLDA wasn't even regestered as any sort of official corporate entity, not

  even a 501 (c3).  Has that changed or been effected?

                Two different concepts that you have to understand here. There 
is management via technicalities and technical management. Then there are other 
issues -- management of technology and the technology of management. 

                How to make parts interact can be technical or social. Depends 
on the parts. Human parts have one very varied set of principals, some machine 
parts have very "on off" simplicity. The marketing of a political answer to a 
legal quandry regarding internet privacy is quite technical and requires a 
complex application of soft science in the areas of anthropology and social 
justice. So trying to make a clean seperation between technical and Poli tical 
is nonsense. 

                My humor was that ICANN in its' own in house process uses the 
failure to apply technology as an excuse to avoid efficiency which would be 
contrary to the bureaucracy they have built up to justify and obscure their 
actions. If this list were allowed or was run efficiently we would be dangerous 
to the status quo. So matters like banning people, accuracy in post archiving 
and anti-spam and virus a Poli tical is nonsense. ahoo.com

political model that is ICANN.

                As to Palmer's comments -- again he revels in a victory through 
silencing criticism as opposed to honest discourse and transparency in 
activity. Generally the sign of fear and lack of confidence in the correctness 
in ones' actions.  But he is a good reminder that ICANN is getting it done 
where the TLDA is/was failure because of even worse forsight and more lack of 
human understanding.

                  No need to worry - I contacted a responsible party at ICANN 
and 
                  the miscreant has been removed from the list.

                  You can all go back to your regularily scheduled discussions, 
none
                  of which have advanced the cause of domain name owners in all
                  the years that I have been here.

                    Hugo and all,



                      No my experiance regarding Eric is he prefers technical 
management via some

                    sort of politics.  I on the other hand believe that such a 
practice almost always

                    ends up being folly and results in a poor solution or more 
likely an unworkable one.  

                    There are no political solutions to technical problems, 
only technical solutions....  

                    On a rare occasion a solution to a technical problem is 
agreed to or proposed by a 

                    politician.  But those very rare occurances are usually, or 
nearly always as a result 

                    of that politician consulting with a good technician or one 
sort or another before 

                    offering his/her proposed solution.

                      One has to wonder what's so technical about hitting a
