Re: [ga] Voting on List Rules - Vote with proposed changes

["Prophet Partners Inc." <Domains@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes, I vote in favor of adopting GA List Rules draft 0.5, ** conditional ** upon implementation of the following 2 changes.

#1 - All references to email addresses containing @dnso.org and @gnso.org are replaced with @gnso.icann.org in the List Rules draft.
#2 - The clause containing "not indulging in threats of legal action of any kind on list" is struck from the List Rules draft. While I agree that personal threats of legal action may be counterproductive to the GA, I strongly believe that other situations directly related to GA business may require invoking legal action. Given the inability of the GA to influence ICANN policy, it may be necessary to initiate legal proceedings against ICANN, ICANN's Board of Directors, Registries, Registrars and/or other entities. Disempowering the GA's ability to initiate legal proceedings only increases ICANN's ability to ignore its own bylaws.

I am not a lawyer and these are only my personal opinions. If you require legal advice, you should seek qualified legal counsel.

Sincerely,
