When people start to forget, it's always good to remind them, and 
luckily there are records of who said what in the mailing list. See below.
So, to summarize:
Danny asked me a question, to which I responded.
I've asked Danny a question on why he is misusing private e-mails in 
a public mailing list, to which he still hasn't responded "Please 
stay focused on the real problem (which is of much greater import 
than your views on my netiquette)".,  thus we have two facts: a) I've 
responded to his e-mail, and b) he hasn't said a word about his behaviour.

Veni,

I have asked an ICANN Board member (yourself), in good
faith, for guidance on how to best deal with a serious
matter that now concerns four different registry
operators.  I look forward to your constructive
remarks.

Danny,
1. The proper channel to ask ICANN questions about its activities, is 
through the Chair of the Board, or the President.
2. Asking individual directors for their "guidance" is not the right 
way to deal with an organization.
3. Your desire to look for guidance from individual directors is 
understandabel, as the history of ICANN is full with strong 
individuals, who may have been giving guidance to you before.
4. It's better for the broader Internet community to have a strong 
ICANN, than just strong individuals with desire to give guidance when asked.
5. As for your questions, see the minutes of our January meeting. And 
note - I do not make comments, or give the "guidance" you requested. 
Neither you should expect me to comment on this - if you need the 
comments, read point # 1 above.
