Right. I've had enough. I joined the IDNO (and the list) to hear what was
going to be done about giving key stakeholders in the DNS (name holders
such as myself) a voice among everyone else who claims to have a stake.

However, it's been nothing but dribble and semantics, and my lurking has
come to the conclusion that you, Kent, seem hell bent on ranting on about
a whole lot of things that have very little to do with the IDNO and a lot
to do with beating your chest. So Kent, welcome to my procmail filter.

Someone bring us back to the ICANN bashing, at least _that_ was vaguely on
topic :)
