Dear All,
I have serious difficulties with the following amendments proposed by Bruce
Quote
*"in case of resistance from ICANN Management and Board".   The current
wording seems to assume there is some sort of default resistance*."
Please kindly make sure that every body agree to the text . We thank Bruce
but we could not subordinate CCWG to Board 's wishes .
Regards
Kavouss
