 The plan of action contained in my
 rather flawed alternative RFC is
 clear. An international convention
 of *ALL* parties with an interest
 in this issue must be convened
 with the backing of several UN
 member states. It must be held
 OUTSIDE the USA.

 As the IAHC currently stands very
 significant players have been very
 consciously EXCLUDED. Who do I mean?
 The Alternate Domain Name supporters,
 Governments, On-line human rights and
 electronic civil liberties organizations
 and so on. IAHC is a rigged jury.

 And, alas, even luke warm participation
 from one UN bureaucracy is insuffient
 to save IAHC from the same fate as IANA:
 paralysis, dissention and dissolution.
 IAHC has as much clout in the real world
 as does the Ascension Island knitting
 circle. So many interested parties have
 been snubbed out of the process as to
 invalivdate it.

            Don't talk to me of politics or power,
                 I have had enough of both.
       Talk to me of freedom, healing, love and truth.
              Then we may begin to find our way.
