Re: [ga] RE: issues that are long closed?

Joop and all,

  Good point Joop.

First Roberto says this issue is closed, than he says it's not
closed a few days later.  I believe he has a task that the
ICANN Bod and Sr. Staff have charged him to do which
he is having trouble doing and is stalling for time while also
trying to break down the GA's resolve.  I believe if Roberto
is successful he is in line for a promotion.  Remember, ICANN
appointed Roberto, we did not ask for him to be the liaison.

  Further it seems ICANN has to reform or face serious
consequences which most of us here are not aware of.
Roberto and Vini are trying to sell the RALO concept,
problem is it wont sell.  ALAC, RALO, or whatever
alphabet soup concept that disincludes individual representation
for registrants or users, will never sell unless we loose our
resolve.  Freedom to choose is not always easy, but it is
right.
