Diane,
As I stated previously if ICANN were truly the community-consensus based
organization that it claims to be, all they would have to do is ask, and
resources would be volunteered by members of the community. That is what a
community is about. It isn't about multi-million dollar budgets,
high-priced attorneys and speaking to fellow denziens of ones community
through press releases.
I know at least a dozen people present in these discussion capable of the
programming necessary(and there are doubtlessly many, many more.) That
people aren't jumping at the chance to offer their services should dispell
the myth that this ICANN is a creature of self-governance.
I'd sooner rot in hell than help enable this charade.
Perhaps someone from AOL or IBM is available?
