But, do you and danny think we can discuss gTLDs, ccTLDs, and sTLDs all at
the same time with all the same policies and discussions going on for
each.
Or do you see each of these being topics to discuss separately as not to
be
confusing?
Some people are more concerned about gTLDs, others, ccTLDs, and still
others
only sTLDs. (These are not the ONLY possibilities, just limiting it to 3
to
ask my questions here)
Shouldn't we have some type of format to create working groups for
discussions relating to each and even sub-WGs on specific elements of
each?
Shouldn't the ALAC and the GNSO be requesting this to be done and
shouldn't
they be requesting this type of input.
A lot of board members and others complain this list is always saying they
are doing a bad job, however there are people on this list that could be
great contributors to the whole process if they would stop and make use of
this FREE resource.
If the people on this list all offered to help me improve my business and
offered to do it for free, I would believe GOD has blessed me immensley
and
would utilize the resource to it's fullest potential.
Question is, why hasn't ICANN, the DNSO, the ALAC, and others done so?
