Re: [atlarge-discuss] Available Name
Friends,
We must distance ourself from ICANN and "at large" must be tossed. Voice, World
and Internet are good.
They are globally recognizable. In many languages.
Our Outreach must set standards of excellence and not fall into the pain of the
Internet spam model.
J.O. (I like those initials for our great leader) is a little radical but she
has some great points.
Yes I know I preach not talking about the individual and only about the points
raised and made, but sometimes I think accolades should be posted. Great job
J.O. and J.L.. I would not put artificial limits on what the two of you may
accomplish. The sky is only blue because it is limitless, and too many fail to
reach for it.
Sincerely,
Eric
