..so, there's a pattern emerging.  Hmmm, what could that be about, I ask?

The outreach component seems to be squeezed into smaller and smaller
vessels.  There is the perennial complaint - from the contracted parties -
that it costs too much and, afterall, they're the ones who fund that sucker
and they don't need no outreach.  ICANN - the corporation - has always
expected others to fund outreach on its behalf. All you need do is look at
ALS in the context of the MOU and see how it is articulated.  Comes the
latest ALAC Review which clearly bemoans the outcomes of outreach.

Go figure.
