Sincerely speaking I had no means to predict the arrival of the answer during
these days after so long time I was waiting for. In my presentation, for the
sake of 'fairness' I preferred howewer to give the benefit of doubt to the
involved party.
I already know my fault was not putting on the ICANN an URL pointing to a
page I'm able to update by myself (for many reasons... not just to give 'live'
updates on events which happens to me).
I asked if it was possible to update my page but getting
no answer [(again... :-) ] I thought this was not possible
or being seen as a annoying problem.
I'm not used to put load on others for faults that are mine...so I accepted ,on
my side, to be bound to very static presentation for these election.
This was ok for both side (ICANN election staff and me) but the arrival of
answer caused the sort deadlock I was describing.
I'll repeat myself here that this is *not* a big concern. :-)
It is only a two days time window (now one) concern because the answer I
had will have a follow-up monday when I will be back to work so statement
on my presentation page will return to be appropriate.
I wrote about this sort problem on the list for sake of discussion and as a
little (very little and not a concern) example on how challenging is to put in
place a election mechanims having the highest degree possibile of fairness
toward all interested parties, voters, candidates,election staff.
I'll repeat myself here again that this story is *not* a concern. :-)
Best regards
Giorgio Griffini
