[atlarge-discuss] Where might a “new” member of icannatlarge.com post biographical information and icannatlarge.com volunteer interests?

Where might a "new" member of icannatlarge.com post biographical information and icannatlarge.com volunteer interests?

I am encouraged to participate by the words of David Schutt (03:12 PM 8/4/2002) referencing one of my posts: "Don't let the destroyers of the At-Large win... Purpose, content, and action come from the people who choose to participate."

I am also encouraged by Richard Henderson's clear vision and enthusiasm, and the list contributions recently of others with crystal clear views of a democratic, bottom-up future for the public control, maintenance and growth of the Internet as a global public good.

I just checked http://www.icannatlarge.com/index.htm hoping to find that I could add my volunteer interests to my membership "profile" only to find no provision for that. Then I examined "Register Here" to be reminded that there was no provision either for an expression of areas of interest in volunteer work.

I did in my earlier registration, however, indicate my ability and willingness to contribute at least $10 in support of icannatlarge.com. Ironically as an American, I number among the largest global Internet constituency of all, the impoverished.

For those interested, and by way of illustration and example, you may find my ID at http://www.starwalker.org/JB-ID.jpg I will appreciate everyone respecting my privacy. It is for everyone's information only. It is only one simple way to increase the integrity of icannatlarge.com, and could be handled and securely filed by an icannatlarge.com "registrar" at some future time.

I am, among my volunteer interests, willing to be considered, when the time comes, to serve as such a registrar, or as part of a group of registrars, or in whatever way icannatlarge.com might deem. The integrity of elections and organizations, and democratic process are my greatest interests.
