I am now convinced that one cannot do more than provide an open forum and bring the important issues to the table together with proposals how to deal wit them.

I just want to state publically that I trust Daniel, Hans-Petter, and the other RIPE people involved in this matter to do the right thing. Not being a legal expert, and not being a native english speaker either, it's very hard for me to directly comment on the ICANN proposals. On the other hand, I have come to trust you guys over the last years, and see no reason to distrust you now. Of course, if you change the existing open processes into a "the RIPE NCC rules the world!" dictatorship, we'll come and get you...
