Richard, Marc, and all stakeholders or other interested parties and members,

  Thank you Marc again for this kind and unencumbered offer.  We
appreciate you finally getting back in a round about way with us.
Perhaps in the future you could be more open and transparent
is such issue related responses of this nature.  >;)

  Richard, thank you for forwarding this to the members list although
such should not have been necessary in truly democratic organizations
dealings with individuals.  I also hope that by now you have abandon
your motion for not including the string "ICANN" in our new name?
Please advise.
