but apart from the fun-part: this prooves that we were right in stating that we 
need a procedure for our inputs to the board. 

When I am home and recovered from jet lag, I will work on that.

hi,

at saturday's public forum we learned something about the board's attitude to 
alac's and other committee's contributions to the board.

I think Vint Cerf's response to Vittorio's crtitique was priceless!

I checked the real-time captioning. Vittorio's critique on how the board 
handles ALACs inputs, e.g. our statement/proposals on transparency, ended with 
the words:

?I HOPE THAT WE DON?T HAVE TO GO TO THE OMBUDSMAN TO GET INFORMATION ABOUT HOW 
THE BOARD IS CONSIDERING WHAT WE SAY.?

Vint Cerf gave a very enlightening answer: ?...AS I HAVE LISTENED TO MANY OF 
THE EXCHANGES THIS WEEK, I HAVE CONCLUDED THAT WHAT HAPPENS IS THAT WE 
SOMETIMES DON?T UNDERSTAND THAT A PARTY WHO HAS SAID SOMETHING IS ALSO LOOKING 
SPECIFICALLY FOR A REPLY?
THIS IS NOT TO EXCUSE ANYTHING, BUT WHEN WE ? IF WHEN YOU ARE COMMUNICATING 
SOMETHING SPECIFICALLY TO THE BOARD AND AN EXPLICIT RESPONSE IS EXPECTED, 
PROBABLY IT WOULDN?T HURT TO SAY THAT, JUST TO UNDERSCORE THE 
POINT.?<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns =

Wow! 

 From now on we will put a reminder on all our statements: ANSWER EXPECTED!

just bloged that on my german blog: http://www.wecann.net
