ICANN holds open meetings, free to attend, with open mike sessions for public comment. People have always been allowed to distribute policy drafts, proposals, RFCs, resolutions, etc. The meeting is not, however, a trade show, and we don't want companies to use it for marketing purposes. So the distribution of commercial literature is restricted to sponsors. That's SOP for meetings like this. --andrew ------------------------------------------------------------------- andrew mclaughlin | chief policy officer & cfo internet corporation for assigned names and numbers <ajmat_private> | <http://www.icann.org> ------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- POLITECH -- Declan McCullagh's politics and technology mailing list You may redistribute this message freely if you include this notice.
