Apropos Public Comments

[Avri Doria]

Hi,

I think a statement that endorses the ALAC statement, which I just submitted to the comment area, would be a good thing.  And if there are any other points that people want to make that we did not cover, that would be good too.  There is a lot more in the program that we did not comment on because we wanted to hit the major points.

Also any comment from individual NCSG members, especially those from organizations in developing economies from their perspective would be wonderful.  Getting a viable support program from ICANN is an uphill struggle, so any help from the NC world would be helpful.

Perhaps a one para reiteration of the highlights would suffice to add a little extra wind in the sails?
