Re: [ga-abuse] [Admin] Warning (was: Re: [ga] 0:212 IPv8 Recommended .BIZ Registras)


ALEXANDER, What is your problem?

I realize Jim Fleming posted this message; however, his question is rather 
ON TOPIC.

"Has the ICANN Board and staff approved this ?"

Just because ICANN is NOT doing it's job is NO REASON for you to attempt to 
convince others that technical coordination and policy is not on topic 
within the DNSO.
