Jaz and all stakeholders or other interested parties and members,

  You can join no questions ask of course.  That is the point of being
open and transparent after all...

  Not a free for all, no.  But open and transparent to any and all members
that wish to join in and help out as well as actively participate.

  I was not suggesting anyone "Guess" on anything or everything.  That should
have been perfectly clear in that I suggested that if you don't wish to join
than at least take the personal responsibility to review the archives which
I posted the URL for to make it at least a little bit easier for you or any
other new or existing member.

  Personal responsibility in this context means that your request can and should
be handled by yourself, and not by the rest of any other member to
spoon feed you specifically as you requested, the pertinent information that
you seem to be interested in.  Hence again why I posted the URL for the
Archives of the WG-WEB.  Here it is again so that you can update
yourself at you own leisure or in whatever time you wish to:
 http://icann-at-large.org/pipermail/wg-web_icann-at-large.org/

  If you are a personally responsible person as well as member, I would
strongly suggest and recommend that you avail yourself of every opportunity
to keep yourself updated instead of asking others to do it for you...
