Lists:
I have been a regular contributor to most ICANN related lists for the last
two years, including this, the GA Lists and the At Large Forum set up by
ICANN for its clean sheet study. There are various ways to access these
documents, searching my name on Google being one of them. Archives appear
at:-
http://www.dnso.org/dnso/gaarchives.html
http://www.dnso.org/wgroups/wg-review/Arc02/maillist.html
http://atlargestudy.org/forum_archive/index.shtml

At Large Forum:
I have made about 20 comments in the Forum on a range of topics - funding,
website, at large director elections, regional groups and so on.

Websites:
I have written several pieces especially for Icannwatch.org. and a copy of a
letter I wrote this week to Stuart Lynn entitled "Who is the .org
consultant" is published there. At the time of writing this, I have not
received a reply from the ICANN CEO. What a surprise.

Last year, Kendall Dawson and I worked together on
InternetStakeholders.com., as webmaster and editor respectively. This
initiative supported the work of WG-Review and the GA by taking the best
(meaning the most substantive) arguments made on the various mailing lists
and organizing them into specific topic areas on the website using PHP. It
worked surprisingly well, but proved time consuming, so I let it go. Limited
archives still exist at
http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.internetstakeholders.com

My candidate statement for the 2001 DNSO ICANN Board Election stresses the
importance of fair play and proper consideration of all affected
stakeholders being weighed heavily in any determination of policy. This is
available at
http://www.dnso.org/clubpublic/icann-nominations/Arc01/msg00015.html and
there may be a web cast somewhere of the expanded presentation made during
Montevideo with Q&A from the NC.

More than most I suspect. As a member of BBC Television fulltime Staff for
14 years, working at a middle management level, I was trained to work always
in the public interest and held accountable to license payers and Parliament
in compliance with the Charter, http://www.bbc.co.uk/info/bbc/charter.shtml
Agreement and other regulations, maintaining the high standards and values
expected of the BBC as the nation's broadcaster.

I'm not sure I understand the question. If you mean my personal business
projects, then yes, I build teams for my business on a project by project
basis, and yes, we increasingly rely on the internet to communicate and work
internationally on a day to day basis.

Sincerely,
Joanna
