Richard,

I interchange my tasks, I wish you have my opinion before
the end of your business day.

==> Technical:

    My experience (6 month, will release this week already written
    "1999 Secretariat lessons") is that it is absolutely impossible
    to have a completely open list without any manual approval.
    Recent attacks have proven than you may destroy the whole dnso.org
    server. There is no more any open list on the icann.org site.

==> The protection from spam means filtering. Which means that spams
    are stopped at the dnso.org server (ressources needed).
    I want to stress out, that a direct democracy (i.e. without structure)
    may work only when civil rules are respected, otherwise
    the burden is moved from one group to another.

Kind regards,
See you later today.
