        <div>
          <div>Folks,</div>
          <div>I’m sure if we think about it for just a second, we can
            all agree that anyone’s recollections (whatever their tenure
            or status in the community) about the past intentions,
            motives and actions of the board, the community or some
            interest group, are COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT. The exercise in
            which we are engaged involves imaging the worst of these
            things and attempting to put structures in place to mitigate
            the consequences should the unfortunate occur. Let’s stop
            returning to this TOTALLY USELESS discussion of track
            records and good intentions and stay on task. If you believe
            the community can do no wrong and the board represents a
            machiavellian force of darkness that needs to be throttled,
            you’re in entitled to your opinion. Just take it someplace
            else. If you believe the community is just a rag tag
            collection of special interest groups with political motives
            and  that the board should receive a medal, I hereby
            validate your opinion as well. Now take it someplace else.
            This is decidedly NOT the conversation we are trying to have
            here. Every time it comes up, it sends us down a ridiculous
            path and ends badly.</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>So here’s my proposal:</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <ol>
            <li>If you are drafting a post to the list and it begins to
              sound like either an accusation or defense of the board,
              the community or some SO or AC, PLEASE STOP TYPING. Back
              way from the PC, go for a walk, come back and post
              something that is helpful to the discussion.</li>
            <li>If you spot a post that slips through that reads like
              either an accusation or defense of the board, the
              community or some SO or AC, DON’T TAKE THE BAIT. Count to
              10, call your therapist, do whatever you must, but LET IT
              GO. </li>
          </ol>
          <div>That is all. Henceforth, I will flag all such posts as
            overt attempts to derail this process of developing an
            effective accountability framework for ICANN because there
            can be no other explanation for their continued existence.
             If you find yourself writing something like “in all my
            years,” “it’s been my experience,” or “I don’t recall” stop
            typing immediately and think about the useless debate you
            are about to start or continue.</div>
          <div><br>
          </div>
          <div>This is NOT about the current board, the current
            community or anyone’s intentions or motives. It’s about a
            post IANA contract world in which ICANN needs effective
            accountability to the community. That’s it. It’s not
            personal. Let’s get back to work. Thank you.</div>
