[ALAC] Interesting correspondence

[Alan Greenberg]

Two letters protesting the Digital Archery method of new gTLD 
Batching. As tempting as it is, I will not add any editorial 
comments, but do suggest that you read them (hint, I am not a fan of 
the proposed batching technique).

Not yet published on the ICANN Correspondence page, a letter on 
behalf of the International Olympic Committee making a formal Board 
Reconsideration Request related to the Board decision not to adopt 
the first-level changes approved by the GNSO. It is interesting that 
such a request goes to the Chair of the Board Governance Committee, 
who happens to be Bruce Tonkin, a conflicted Board member (related to 
new gTLDs) who cannot take part in any discussions or decision 
related to new gTLDs.
