<p class="MsoNormal">I agree that we have significant work to do. There are good conversations to be had about how we balance inclusiveness and our multistakeholder approach with the ability to be agile and decisive. If we can work through this, we'll come
out as a stronger community. Together with the resources resulting from the sale, that will enable us to do a lot of good for the Internet.<o:p></o:p></p>

https://savedotorg.org/#add-org</a>, slews of reporters, 3 ISOC Chapters and almost all well-informed independents are strongly opposed to the deal. The Internet Society just revealed it would get 1.13 Billion from very rich US investors for .org. That is enough
money that honorable people have decided the damage to the Internet from the deal should be overridden. The deal will die if Pennsylvania or ICANN blocks or even delays.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Trebuchet MS",sans-serif">If I were on the board, I might have voted for the deal. I've been among the most skeptical, partly because the amount and many other key details were totally secret. I would have demanded much more information
and public discussion. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Trebuchet MS",sans-serif">I'm strongly advocating ISOC now take extraordinary steps to heal the rift with the chapters and restore the public perception of ISOC. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
