Fwd: Invitation to participate in academic study on ICANN

[farzaneh badii]

Hi Farell

Yes, I posted Jan's request to interview some of us on this list some
months ago.

I will dig it out.

Jan is a great scholar and I am glad that he is running an independent
study about this topic. This is a study on ICANN and not by ICANN. It is
independent.



Best

Farzaneh

>> The project investigates attitudes towards ICANN among board, community,

>> The study is entirely independent: it is conducted by researchers at the
