I think the more likely to get heard concept lies in putting forth comments from a collective standpoint. Instead of just posting a comment post it here and ask for input and then we send it out as you the author endorsed by the GA. Just as an out there thought I wonder couldn't the GA apply for and get granted the job on this RFP; ICANN&l t;http://www.icann.org/>

No kidding! And here I was thinking we were actually participating in the
ICANN process...
Perhaps we should just boycott ICANN? What if those of us who have been
here since the inception of ICANN just unsubscribed on the same day and
sent out a press release to that effect with our names attached?
