[AfrICANN-discuss] Is it relevant to know who is who on the AfrICANN list?

[Adiel Akplogan]

Hello Pierre,

Allow me to make few comments on this poll. What is it purpose? 
Who is/is_not entitle to take the poll? How do you control that? 
For it to have the weight that you wish, it may has: 

1 - not to be anonymous - this list being an open forum of 
    discussion created specially with that intend. People 
    expressing opinion on how the list must be run should 
    be known and be able to transparently display their views.
2 - to be taken only by people who have been on the list and/or 
    active on it over the past minimum 2 years. (If I want the 
    result of the poll to go into a particular direction what 
    prevent me to request all my family, my dogs, my cats, 
    neighbours to take the poll and say what I want them to say?.

Trying to meet the above 2 points alone will make you quickly 
realise that the poll by itself is inappropriate to answer the 
question you are asking … 

On a more general note, has it happened to any of you who are 
vehemently questioning the expertise of people on the list and 
trowing stones all over to ask yourself what is the genesis of 
this list? What was it purpose and objective? Who came up with 
the idea and to achieve what? I think trying to understand that 
a lone would have cut 90% of this never-ending loop of the debate 
that is going on for a while now.

Thanks.
