Agreed.  Thank you, Roeland.  Whilst I certainly don't always support Danny's
approach I am 100% supportive of his concerns about the shabby processes.

Danny could, for example, have called for members input rather than proposing
a boycott and then backing down when given another possible course to follow.

Nevertheless, I am inclined to agree with him in this case and support the
idea of a boycott.  Of course, there may be a better way and I'm open to your
views or that of other GA members.

What exactly did you have in mind ?

I'd like to see a fairly unanimous vote of no confidence in ICANN?

Best regards
