Re: TAC

Brian,

Thanks for your comments.

Parenthetically it is worth noting, with some level of concern,
that the initial topic regarding the TAC is that of the liaison position
to the ICANN Board.

That said I'm not sure that I can agree here that the PSO nominations
of current Board members is entirely irrelevant to the PSO's consideration
of this topic, as you appear to be suggesting in your response.

I too would be interested to lean of the views of others, particularly
of the W3C, on this topic.

regards,

   Geoff
