<p style="background:white"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">What with the Board’s comments, it appears that we will be working on the proposal all through the Western world’s holiday season. Some might grumble, but I myself choose
to respond with true holiday spirit. And what could be more cheery than a Christmas carol? I'm thinking of classic holiday songs like: “I’m dreaming of an AdobeConnect Christmas.” But here is one especially tailored to the CCWG. It's called "Working in the
ICANN Wonderland," and if you don’t know the melody,you can hear the original, pre-ICANN tune here:

<br>
Alarm bell rings, are you listenin’? Inadvertent omission...<br>
The proposal’s a mess, we’re all in distress<br>
Working in the ICANN wonderland<br>
<br>
Oh the board gets indigestion, when we try to get inspection<br>
They want to be free, of accountability, <br>
Working in the ICANN wonderland<br>
<br>
In the meantime we can write some bylaws, then pretend that we have got a clue<br>
They’ll say “are they accountable”? We’ll say “No Man!”<br>
But we can do the job in Workstream Two!<br>
<br>
Later on, we’ll conspire, to set human rights on fire<br>
Let’s not be afraid, of the plans that we made, <br>
Working in the ICANN wonderland<br>
