So, I do represent IAB, as is Rob, so I neither represent RIPE or EU, but
In the first round of IAHC/POC participation, we've typically characterized the IANA/ISOC/IAB participants as "at large" in the sense that we haven't really "represented" the organizations that named us. Rather, we've claimed to represent the general Internet community. None of us was ever given directives by the naming organization nor were we otherwise accountable. Also interestingly, I'd guess that the bulk of the group's discussions indicated more concern for non-US interests than for strictly US ones... In any event, there has been a tendency for folks who lobby for particular representation to ignore matters of actual content. d/ -------------------- Dave Crocker +1 408 246 8253 Brandenburg Consulting fax: +1 408 249 6205 675 Spruce Dr. dcrocker at brandenburg.com Sunnyvale, CA 94086 USA http://www.brandenburg.com Internet Mail Consortium info at imc.org, http://www.imc.org -------- Logged at Sun Sep 21 10:52:37 MET DST 1997 ---------
