[At-Large] [NA-Discuss] Letter to the Board

Darlene:

 

If I complain about language issues it is on behalf of the community I
represent and elected me, it is a big deal for them. I speak enough English
to understand and make myself understood.

 

The person elected, whose name is Andres, not José, speaks good English so
language barrier shall not be a problem. 

 

Just to make it clear, I did not campaigned for Andres Piazza, Carlos did
and it seems to have worked pretty good. I just happen to know Andres Piazza
and think he is a good working guy.

Amen,

 

Oh, and just as a personal aside here:  I'm really sorry that you didn't get
elected for the .mobi thing as it seemed obvious for that to happen.  I
really just think that ALAC is trying to placate the other regions - which
will just get us loaded down with people that don't know the job.  I *hope*
that Jose does a good job but I just see the two ALCRALO ALAC reps (who
championed for him) as constantly complaining about language issues and
getting nothing else done.

 

Anyways, I'm just venting here.  I just hope that you don't get discouraged
and that you keep on with your e-mails.  They are appreciated (at least by
Evan and myself) even if you don't get much feedback.

Well, sure.  ICANN's job is to manage the DNS root and to hand out IP
space.  People have all sorts of other concerns, but they're not what
ICANN does.

A more relevant question is why, in view of ICANN's extremely narrow job,
it costs $100M/yr to do it.
