No participation rules were enforced by fiat. NONE. More Lies (yes
I've taken to calling them what they are, for these individuals KNOW
them to be false, and insist on continuing their charade).

Again FALSE. More Lies.

Any member of the IDNO can make a recommendation such as this. In
this particular case, the recommendation did not carry the support of
enough of the IDNO to even be brought to a vote. But you choose to
ignore that.

NO ONE was EVER removed by anyone but themselves. NEVER. NOT ONCE.
This is the most blatent lie you have perpetrated.

Actually, I think it illustrates the strength of the IDNO. The
members chose NOT to oust anyone, and indeed the IDNO continues to
grow despite the presence of known individuals who are hostile to the
concept of individual representation at an equal level to commercial
and registrar representation.
All you have done is shown that the IDNO is even STRONGER and better
organized.

Uh, no, this is again false. The current voter roles are available
and they are quite a bit larger than this, each voting member having
been researched by the membership committee as meeting the eligibility
requirements.

And then why do you tell lies about them? The archives are open.
Read them people, don't take this person and Kent's word for it.
Don't even take my word for it (though I am on the membership
committee). Read the archives. Join the list. See that indeed these
are nothing more than blatent lies made knowingly and with intent to
disrupt and discredit.
The simple fact of the matter is that if Kent had submitted a
membership request with his domain name, he would of been on the
approved voters list and could of had a voice in this election. Same
with Kevin Connolly and Dave Crocker, and any other domain name holder
REGARDLESS of their position vis a vis ICANN. There is no "oath
against ICANN" in the IDNO, or rule that CORE supporters are not
welcome.
