[atlarge-discuss] Esther talks to Salon



Excerpt from the Salon interview with Esther Dyson:

Salon:  Let's talk about Karl Auerbach. He's a board member but he says that 
he's never been allowed to see the financials, and now he's suing to see 
them. And he's taken a populist argument, saying it's something the public 
should see, or that it's something that ICANN is afraid of having the public 
see. What's your feeling on this? 

Esther:  I probably should be very careful not to get messed up in a lawsuit. 
It's very unfortunate, and I would say both sides are to blame that Karl 
Auerbach cannot get along with them. The board despises him, and they won't 
listen to his good ideas, and he has some. And so he's not productive. Look 
at me. The American at-large community despises me but I think I'm doing more 
good for At Large by working with ICANN than I would if I were out there 
simply criticizing them, not trying to improve them.
