Eric and all stakeholders or interested parties,

  As some of you may know the icannworld.org site was presented
by Danny Younger in MdR in the name of the DNSO GA members,
without their prior knowledge.  Many DNSO GA members
felt that this was a bit of a disingenuous act by Mr. Younger in the
Agenda that the DNSO GA members had set for MdR and took up
a large amount of the time allotted for the DNSO GA presentation.
However I also am in favor of Danny and any others wishing to
be supportive of ICANN in any way it so chooses, but not in the
name of the DNSO GA members without their consent.  I mostly
see www.icannworld.org as a promotional consenting of the stakeholders
site.  I would rather invite all of you here to view the http://www.icannwatch.org/

site for a more balanced and actively inclusive view.
