Hi McTim,

Acknowledging what you have said is very true and correct.

Just a clarification,  this is just the first post from my end and
these are my personal comments based on my initial feelings from the
ICANN meeting, please read the disclaimer at the bottom and the
intention of this blog is not to undermine anyone's or any
organization's efforts. Its true that at the end of the day, no two
people may have the same understanding of a single situation.
