Why do you say "our interest in this matter" -- are you including all of
us in this "our"?? Are we opening up a general verification of funding
of all projects of all NGOs, academic organizations etc, participating
in this list??

I keep wondering why there is an insistence from some to deviate the
discussion from the central issues we are dealing with. As we were about
to deliver our rough consensus statement to MAG/IGF, which has much to
do with ICANN, a lot of diversionist discussions crept up, motivated
mostly by two ICANN staff.

Should we consider creating a moderation mechanism in this list? You
have noticed many people are not participating already. Soon there will
be the 8-10 "usual suspects" only, left barking at each other, and the
list will die. Is this the actual objective of inserting these themes in
the list?
