it is not only being in the employ of one of these organizations that  
disqualifies someone for membership.
even being a volunteer in an internet based organization like, IETF,  
ICANN, ARIN etc., is enough, as i understand it.
though if one is only a member of ISOC, that may be ok, as I  
understand it.  but it would be good to understand the qualities that  
mark one as unqualified.  i assume there are some objective criteria,  
and since the new association was announced here, it would be good to  
understand the membership litmus test clearly.

another question i have, is whether those of us who are unredeemably  
tainted, as i assume i am, can join the mailing list?

thanks

a.
