Hi Joly,
Thanks!
Hi Bill,
I can tell that my email on liaisons was not well received by you. My apologies.
As for your suggestion, I have already taken on enough ICANN tasks to keep me quite busy. More then that, though, I do not beleive my viewpoints are in the mainstream of NCUC at this point and may not even represent the mainstream of NCSG members, so would not see myself as being a good representative of the NCSG at this point in its and my lifecycle. I think it is important for a group to have a liaison who is comfortable that she is in the mainstream of the organization she is representing.
But thanks for thinking of me. I am sure the CSG would have been' thrilled' to have me as a liaison. It might have even been enough to bring them together. if I remember correctly I have been a unifying, albeit external, influence for the CSG in recent history.
I would have answered a few of your other points, but it was just too caustic a note for me to know how to approach it. Sorry I disagreed.

Relations there have deteriorated rather badly, as will be on display in Technicolor in the Council discussion of the Outreach Task Force fiasco. I would happily nominate you to serve as our liaison. Since CSG and ALAC have similar positions on some items we care about, e.g. WHOIS, IPR, LEA, etc., there would be abundant opportunity to get in there and throw all the bombs you like. Plus, CSG is riven with factionalism so you'd be well positioned to play one group off another by saying we support you and not you, etc. So you could do the job precisely as you think it should be done. Would you accept this nomination? If so I can make it on the tonight's call.
