Totally agree.

Has Mr Robert Elz given any indication he will allow .AU to be administered
by ADNA or for that matter anyone else?

With out an indication that Mr Elz will reliquish control to others ADNA is
just wasting its time as Mr Elz can veto any work completed by ADNA.

If as you say above you are a Non Voting board member I see no problems with
you as a board member as you are there only to oversea policy etc.

I still wish to know if the current board members are going to be involved
in DNS registrar applications from an applicant stand point.
