There is no consensus. As for sending email to all internet users - humm! 200 million users (estimated and growing daily). Have fun. Control of the dns infrastructure is in the hands of those who control the root cache. Not ICANN. ICANN is an experiment in comedy, and a fine one at that. The ga has seen consensus in it's support of Nii. I felt Nii was a bit too sweet to play chairman, but of all the candidates in my opinion he was the finest. An honourable man, well educated, sincere, and diplomatic. I was very pleased to support him and see he had considerable support here. Nii was also a great color - he's black. A politically correct color code with brains. And what happens, he get's trashed. Maybe Dr. Nii was the wrong color for the board - because he certainly had the brains and support to get in. Dr. Nii, as a white representative of the european race I formerly appologise for my white brothers and sisters, wrong colour dr. nii - i didn't know there was a clash. You entire consesus question is irrelevant. This is the finest dictatorship I have ever seen. Like all internet dictatorships, the rise will be swift, the fall merciful.
