[At-Large] [NA-Discuss] Results of the Voting for ALAC NominatingCommittee 2008 Appointments

[Danny Younger]

Alan has indicated that:

"None of the NA people on the ALAC personally knew
Dierker, and were not comfortable with putting his
name forward to the rest of the ALAC."

What a statement!  The NA people on the ALAC that have
only recently been active in ICANN matters don't
personally know a veteran of the process that has been
continuously active for the last seven years in
defense of the user interest, and they chose not to
make an effort to personally get to know him... it was
easier just scrapping his nomination without
consulting the NARALO membership and without engaging
in due diligence.

What are we doing here?  Are we building private
little clubs that only our small circle of friends can
join?  Is this how suitable candidates for the NonCom
are being selected?  

Sorry, but to me this smacks of cronyism, and I find
it to be repulsive.
