[NCUC-DISCUSS] A problem in registration form for ICANN60 Abu Dhabi

[Tapani Tarvainen]

We might want to lobby to change the "Other" selection to
"don't want to say" or "irrelevant" something to that effect
and then all select that.

Even better would be to get rid of the question altogether
on grounds that it is irrelevant.
