Re: [ga] Jonathan Cohen disqualified as Intellectual property rep resentative



Mike and all,

  I think the point that Michael Sondow is making is that we don't know
if Jon or Victoria are making the comments when posting using the
same E-Mail address.  Furthermore, it is even than doubtful if
either of them actually exist in some folks mind's because of this
missive or misuse  of a E-Mail address, leading to even greater
confusion.

  Hence, I would say that either Jon and Victoria need to post their
exchanges and/or comments from separate E-Mail addresses as
everyone else does, or discontinue making any comments to these
mailing lists all together and also resign form any positions they may be
tentatively holding on the DNSO or any WG's.
