Pardon? Icannatlarge.com/org was started one year before the ALAC was 
conceived. When the ALAC was created, most icannatlarge members lost 
interest in it, and many of its key people (including me, who happened 
to be the Chairman at that time, and Esther Dyson, who had funded its 
creation) started to participate in the ALAC instead.

Wow. That's free, bottom-up, voluntary participation :)
