RE: [atlarge-discuss] VB on elections for ICANN board members



Vittorio, please continue to work with who you can for what you can, then
bring it to the organization for ratification.

Jamie, please allow those who may have a foot in the door to keep it there,
even if the smell inside offends you!  It offends me too, but the
alternative is no interaction at all.  And if Vittorio can turn one voice
from the Dark Side to support our cause, it's a victory!

No, please. You even asked me an explicit clarification about this. I said
that individuals should elect board members, but that since this is not
achievable in the present situation as the ICANN Board will never accept it
and no external force will likely act to make them accept it, we should try
at least to get some more realistic targets. For example, an At Large
council or committee elected by individuals, which in turn elects some board
or NomCom members.

Anyway, the quarrel closes here. There is a basic divergence of ideas: while
we both are unhappy by what ICANN has been doing in the last years with the
At Large issue, you think we should not interact with them any more but for
complaining, I think we should still work to get as much as possible in the
new scenario that will be defined in the next two days. I won't convince you
of my opinion and you won't convince me of yours. Correct?
