in my comments to the ICANN board yesterday I noted that Roberto Gaetano and I first met at the original CORE meetings in '97/'98.

I was struck by the number of people who I first met back then that are
still well involved in the process. They include the following:

– Roberto Gaetano (ICANN board member)
– Hal Lubsen (CEO, Afilias)
– Ken Stubbs (GNSO council)
– Amadeu Abril i Abril (former board member, former gnso member, self-admitted ICANN groupie)
– Antony Van Couvering (founder NetNames, traveled to Tuvalu with me in '98 in the early .tv fiasco)
– Bob Connely (registrar emiritus)
– John Kane (now with enom)
– Richard Lindsay (formerly of GMO)
– Nigel Roberts (Jersey ccTLD)
– Jonathan Robinson (NetBenefit)
– Tom Barrett (encirca and .pw)
– Dave Crocker (brandenburg)
– Kent Crispin (songbird)

I am sure I am missing others. Who else was there that is still involved?
