- From the GTALUG mailing list, possibly of interest to LibrePlanet folks.

I talked with Gordon Chillcott at the GTALUG meeting last night; he's
quite involved with ICANN and has some, erm, interesting insights into
the internal workings...

I'll be there, hope to see some of you.

Hi, all:

This is about the remote hub to the ICANN meeting in Los Angeles
tomorrow.

I just got this from Glenn McKnight.  The registration link on this
document does work.
