Yes I know that this is a very long CC list, however, later you
will
understand why some of you are listed individually in this post.
I personally and we (INEGroup) jointly want to express today
our
thanks and extreme gratitude to the ICANN "Initial And Interim
Board and the DNSO.ORG bunch specificaly for information that
I just received regarding the growth of the INEGroup in these discussions
and debates regarding the privatization of the Internet and in particular
the formation of a potential DNSO.
Just about 30 mins ago I sat in on one of our daily internet
video
conferences for what was a unexpected announcement. We have now
reached over 85k supporters whom are stakeholders/users, and increasing
growth rate, up 16% from previous growth reports.
Here are some particulars. (Sniped and pasted for brevity)

++++++++++++++ End of Report
I found this report both elating and ironic at the same time,
but not
unexpected to a great degree. As Korea did when it partitioned
in the
very early 1950's. Those that wanted to escape the Sung collective
dictatorship of tyranny, voted with their feet....
I was requested to provide some commentary with respect to Special
recognition and Honorable mention to certain participants in the ongoing
discussions that were mentioned in other comment sections of the
above report. I have broken this down into two categories.
They are
"Special Thanks/Recognition of" and "Honorable Mention of".
So now without further eloquence or lack there of, however you
wish
to view it, I shall list out those that fit in these categories as
I indicated
the cc list was so long above. You will now understand why.
>;)
Note: All comments are taken from comments section of the Report
(not listed
above in detail).
For Special Thanks/Recognition of :
The ICANN Board - For, and these are not my words here, "your total
lack of honesty and openness with the Stakeholder
community." "For your poor leadership and understanding
of the gravity of the situation that many of the Stakeholder
community find ourselves in."
The DNSO.ORG - Your divisive draft for a "DNSO" is the worst piece
of
crap and obvious divisive document that any bunch of
kooks could have possibly come up with to shaft the
average stakeholder. (this is a collectively agreed
upon comment).
Gordon Cook - Many thanks
to you for your wonderful reporting
on the ICANN and the DNSO.ORG. As a group,
we appreciate it greatly. Good Man!! (BTW Gordon
it is my (Jeff here), understanding that many of the
ladies in our group are interested in making your
acquaintance, shall we say! >;) )
Joe Simms -
You should have your license to practice law removed
immediately! You are a black mark on the legal community
in your actions with the ICANN and the DNSO.ORG.
many of us hope that your employer, Jones & Day
read this and take it seriously. Though many of us realize it
is not likely, sadly....
Mike Roberts -
"You sir, are a disgrace, a lout, and are not to be trusted
by anyone with good sense". " You deserve a sound
thrashing!"
Esther Dyson -
"Ms Dyson, I ask Jeff to include my comment in his
post." "I am having great problems with your openness
and your honesty, as I am sure you are aware many others
are as well". "You by your actions and words, are
debasing the rest of us women of education and position
in industry and government by your behavior."
Kent Crispin- "The clown in the "Chair" of PAB, what can we expect".
Dave Crocker-
"Another one of those spinmisters". " A true dated
jackass".
Honorable Mention of:
Dave Farber-
"Your intellect and candor are refreshing". "Please
continue to be as engaging and enlightening as
you usually seem to be".
Eric Weisburg-
"this guy has a great mind and intellect". "A very
reasonable fellow for and american". "Should
have been one of the ICANN Board"
Karl Auerbach-
"Very reasonably enguaging, and has some of the
best ideas going yet for a DNSO".
Jay Fenello-
" A true gentleman and a wonderful wit".
Jeff:- Jay, you are number 2 on the ladies
most desirable list with us. >;)
Bob Allisat-
"Wonderful Dennis Miller style wit". "Keep
on those @#@$@%^ at ICANN and DNSO.ORG,
we all luv ya here!" "Your honesty and fairness,
all be it graphic, as Jeff says, is still refreshing".
"Is there a Dennis Miller guest appearance of
internet personalities in the works?" "You
are certainly not a kook as some of the numbskulls
at DNSO.ORG and CORE or PAB, or IAHC, or
whatever they call themselves would have many
believe Bob".
