Re: [atlarge-discuss] At-Large Representative?



Thank you Danny.

I recommend we (all of us) brainstorm and bring up isses that we are concerned about as AtLarge members. If we can collate all the concerns into single statement, I would be happy to deliver it Montreal on behalf of the Membership of icannatlarge.

So, if you want to have your concerns heard in Montreal, please start listing them here and I will collect and collate the various issues of import to our membership.

ICANN has convened a Workshop Planning Committee to help coordinate a workshop on Whois and related issues at ICANN's meeting later this month in Montréal, Canada.
Committee member Marilyn Cade (also an icannatlarge member) is soliciting requests for speakers and topics which she will submit to the full committee for consideration. In her message to the Names Council discussion list, Marilyn states: "So, in addition to organizations like CDT, and EPIC, I would assume that the At Large will also want to be heard from..."

This brooks the question: as WHOIS impacts the user community, what action will icannatlarge take to ensure that user views are represented at this session? Will the panel appoint a representative or prepare a statement, or will this organization once more find yet another excuse to avoid participating in community-wide discussions on topics of genuine concern to users?

"The science of jurisprudence regards the state and power as the
ancients regarded fire- namely, as something existing absolutely.
But for history, the state and power are merely phenomena, just as for
modern physics fire is not an element but a phenomenon.

From this fundamental difference between the view held by history
and that held by jurisprudence, it follows that jurisprudence can tell
minutely how in its opinion power should be constituted and what
power- existing immutably outside time- is, but to history's questions
about the meaning of the mutations of power in time it can answer
nothing."
