<br>
For the record, I disagree with George's characterization that he was "interrupted immediately".
<br>
<br>
What occurred was that George submitted a 12-page document with 28 footnotes that arrived by email just 76 minutes prior to the start of the call. I had no opportunity to read much less consider its content prior to the call.<br>
<br>
When the call commenced I asked for mutual agreement that, given the length of the document and the fact that it arrived without advance notice, the co-chairs be accorded the courtesy of being given a few days after conclusion of the call to fully consider
 its contents and to respond in writing if they wished to do so. I expected this request to be noncontroversial but it proved otherwise.

Hi folks,<br>
<br>
The archive of yesterday's call, to appeal the use of anonymous polling within this working group has been posted by ICANN. Notice how my presentation was interrupted immediately, and then we got completely bogged down by process issues. Another call is scheduled
 for next week.<br>
