Jacqueline, Avri
first of all - welceme to the ICANN community, from the inside:)
Greetings go to all other nominated people, too!

Secondly - now is a good time for everyone on this list to stop 
thinking exclusively, but inclusively. Today one may be not a member 
of the Board, the ALAC, the ccNSO, or the GNSO, and he/she can 
criticize freely ICANN.
Tomorrow the same person may become part of ICANN.

That is not a bug. It's a feature.

If we all accept that the past, current and future ICANN-ers are 
actually contributing to the IG caucus, then we will not have to 
write such letters as Jacqueline's, or Avri's.

Personally, I've never stopped considering myself as part of the 
civil society and the IG caucus, where I actually was part of long 
before I joined temporarily ICANN. Because, a director one may not be 
for life, but a citizen one can and must be forever. And on the other 
hand, every netizens should carry in his bag marshal's baton (if I 
got this right into English).

Best,
Veni
