Could Bill confirm this, and let us know if he accepted to be paid. In the context of a public debate, touching public policy related to IG, I would be interested to have more information on this. We might ask ICANN as well. Are the members of the HLP being paid as well? What's ICANN policy on this? It is always good to have such a nice host able to pay for your travel, accommodation and words.</div><div><br></div><div>Another thing which sounds a bit odd to me concerns the number of available seats at the HLP. Chehadé mentioned that he would have no more room that 1 or 2. But from the report we received from London, they were quite a few people, neither participants or experts, attending. Of course, ICANN is master of the house but, again, just wondering about the way things are done.</div><div><br></div><div>How much money is being spent on the HLP, in London? How much will cost the next Californian meeting of the HLP?</div><div><br></div><div>Can someone tell us how much is paid a board member at ICANN?</div><div><br></div><div>JC<br><div>

No, it is entirely what I would expect of what you and what

misrepresentation of readily knowable facts in order to score
cheap political points. </div>

<font color="#330099"><br>
The readily knowable / public facts are - in response to a
request, IGC nominated two people and you did not figure in that
list. What is the 'expertise' for which you were selected, which
the people nominated could not have provided? Quite a few people
on this list raised this uncomfortable issue. Abuse is no
substitute for argument and your language suggests you have none.</font><br>

<div>In any event, this enlightening exchange underscored the
concerns Avri raised your criteria's likely abuse in the service
of a narrow ideology and the value of considering
representatives who are inclined to interact with others in a
civil and professional manner.</div>
</blockquote>
<br>
<font color="#330099">To use Avri's phrase of a 'tent view', we all
agree the current tent itself under-represents many views. Instead
of expanding that view, you are proposing using the 'narrow
ideology' of club membership to further exclude those who ask
uncomfortable questions. <br>
<br>
This can be a setback to CS and denies its important role of
accountability seeking, which has become even more important in
the post Snowden scenario.<br>
