[ga] Re: [ncdnhc-discuss] ICANN Amsterdam meeting tidbits

[Jeff Williams <jwkckid1@ix.netcom.com>]

Chris and all,

  Thank for posting this.  You can also find an article here:
http://dc.internet.com/news/article.php/1557351

  Seems again that ICANN so called announcements are a bit
inaccurate.

  For instance that so called "GNSO" is not really in existence
as the DN GNSO.ORG is registered to one John Berryhill,
a participant in the DNSO GA. Also see: http://www.gnso.org/
 The "TLG" or the potential DN for the TLG is also registered
to Chad Wright of Modesto California and currently using a
yahoo E-Mail address as the contact address...
Interesting eh?  >;)  Sound familiar?  >;)
