Are you saying you have run for an election, you have been elected, and now you have no time to do the job you were elected to do ? This sounds like ICANN Directors, who report that they do not visit the ICANN office on a monthly basis to at least review the employee time-records and read the daily and weekly reports of what the ICANN staff is doing. Don't you think that you and the new ICANN Directors will need budgets to hire staff to check on the other staff ? Also, don't you want a "staffer" to be attending all of the ARIN, RIPE and APNIC meetings ?....Miami and Las Vegas are nice spots.... Are you saying you will not have at least one full-time "staffer" to attend all of the IETF meetings ?
