[governance] Results of charter amendment vote

[Jeffrey A. Williams]

Roland and all,

  I am a huge supporter of asynchronous work and utilize it
frequently.  I rarely attend such meetings unless directed
to do so and sponsered accordingly, but thanks for the 
personalize invite!  >:)  

  Properly managed and effected ICANN meetings should require 
few if any in person attendance.  My companies Board meetings 
are only one a year required for all Board members to attend 
physically/personally.  This is in part a security measure, and in 
part a economic one.  Works well once you get the hang of it, as 
it were.

  What's missing in such asynchronous work by the ICANN
board members is that it is unseen and therefore questionalby
known as to it actually occuring.  Given the history of ICANN
Board decisions and GNSO council decisions terribly poor history,
such questioning concerns appear significantly justified accordingly.
