What about them? There must be some good reason why they did not come to a meeting, join this list or read an article about ICANN in a discussion group or the "popular" press. Are they really interested in DNS or IP issues? Would you make them join and vote if they are not interested? No. We figured this out at our first meeting in Reston. We are it. A few others will join us as elections and referenda are held. But, you won't get 10,000 members no matter what kind of door prize is offered. I'll bet big money there are less than 1,000 voters in our first election. The number could actually decrease in succeeding elections. __________________________________________________ To receive the digest version instead, send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To SUBSCRIBE forward this message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To UNSUBSCRIBE, forward this message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Problems/suggestions regarding this list?
