I know nothing about the Numbers work ..

Despite joining the mailing list, I was not able to follow the Protocols work ..

I follow closely the Names work and Accountability discussions and contribute views through GAC discussions and other GAC representatives .. 

 

Kind regards

I will respond with the following disclosures:

I am on the ARIN Advisory Council and thus play a role in the numbers world, but other than urging the NRO to work through a global committee rather than regional ones, I have not followed or participated in the numbers (CRISP) work either at the regional or global level.

I hold Executive Committee position within the GNSO Noncommercial Stakeholders Group and am an active participant in the names CWG.

I followed the IANAPlan IETF fairly actively but on the whole was a marginal(ized) participant.

Using Patrik's useful template, I am:

 - Outsider for the numbers work
 - Insider for the names work
 - Follower of and commentator on the protocols work
