IMHO, could the ICM Registry folks, and others, be killing us off by their pushing for approval of .xxx this coming Wednesday at the ICANN meeting? Could we be killing ourselves off by not fighting .xxx????
Why don't we ALL send a "Do NOT approve the .xxx tdl" (or words/variations of that short and easily sent email) to the ICANN Forum seeking comments prior to their May 10 meeting to consider the .xxx application which might possibly kill us? Thus far, less than 100 comments have been sent to ICANN's Forum at
[email protected] . Yikes!!
Present comments are viewable at
http://forum.icann.org/lists/xxx-tld-agreement/
Please send an email NOW, lest the ICANN Forum close (possibly BEFORE the May 10th ICANN meeting?) in order to have time for their staff to process/tally/summarize all the input.
I'm an old fogey who just can't understand why we're letting this happen, and why so many of us are standing by and letting the possible beheadings gear up!!
If we don't muster GFYers big-time NOW, regretably the next sound out of this might be ICM's "Cha-Ching", and our ""swooshing" while we are being shoved down the garbage disposal as we are being put out of business????
Please email ICANN immediately, AND motivate your associates/affiliates/members/relatives/friends/neighbors/etc to do likewise!
