Rudi and all,

  I'll try to answer your inquiry and shall do so this way
in the interest of brevity, modality, and individuals personal
privacy and security:

  INEGroup bylaws are publicly available on Edgar as I
have many times stated over the past 9+ years.  Our members,
are also available via FOIA to the FEC.  I do not have myself
a full list of all of our members as that information at that level
of granularity is not necessary for me to have, nor can I post all
280k+ members to this or any other mailing list due to the shear
size of that list.  Some are even members or your counties ISOC,
even though the ISOC ceased to be a full membership organization
where each member had a voice AND a vote on issues that the
ISOC might take that effects them.  As such, many felt and still
feel they have been effectively disenfranchised accordingly.

  And finally, but very importantly I would not, and by resolution
and many legal structures and jurisdictions, cannot give out members
PII lest I want to be sued, which I do not.  I personally respect individuals
personal privacy even though some organizations only say they do and
some governments, including my own don't always uphold those persons
privacy which is directly related to their security.  Most, if not all or
our members to my knowledge are also members of many other
organizations such as EFF, ISOC, ACLU, Doctors without boarders,
ect., ect., ect...  And all are Domain Name holders.  A few or our
members are Sr. Executives or IAP's ISP's or other types or
telecommunication infrastructure service providers.

  My job as to INEGroup is as spokesman, the messanger/public
voice if you will...  Pretty simple actually.
