[ALSC-Forum] geographical representation

[Joop Teernstra]

To stress the point I made about the arbitrary and divisive slicing up of 
the globe,

here is a recent comment from a subscriber (Vittorio Bertola) to icann-europe:


>Anyway, frankly speaking, I don't really care about how many European or US
>directors are in the Board. I only care about how many of them are there to
>serve in good faith the general public interest of the world, and how many
>of them are there to serve personal or lobby interests. And I, as a citizen,
>require that the system is built so that the highest number of skilled,
>competent, but also free, equilibrate, fair and open minded persons are
>elected in the Board. I am confident enough in the qualities of the Internet
>community to think that a worldwide general election would be a good way to
>raise that number, and to in turn involve and make aware every single person
>of his own right and duty to care about the future of the net and about the
>people that will determine it.
