[ALSC-Forum] Hospitality

[Eric Dierker]

I am very upset with ICANN.  Politics aside.  Security aside.

I am an American (norte that is)  And we are an open and hospitable
group of folks.  I am very sorry that my brothers and sisters have not
rolled out the carpet for all or our wonderful guests from though out
the world.

Believe it or not there are some of us not so rich as to throw a banquet
but everyone participating herein is welcome to join me and my friends
just up the street from the ICANN meetings.  We can look each other in
the eye and build international relationships that will transcend any
policy.  We can build understanding and trust.

Our first meeting will be directly after the GA meeting late on Monday
and from there we will build.  We can all walk up the sandy beach and
discuss such things how a great infrastructure can help our struggling
sisters and brothers.  believe me the walk up Venice Beach to Santa
Monica is well worth the effort.

No No No, this is not exclusive and I beg the ALSC, NC and BoD to come
slum it with their friends, for truly we can all disagree and yet build
relationships.

come on folks I truly believe that we can get it together if we get
together.  Please join us for companionship and understanding.

Simply,
Eric
