>>   Ayden Férdeline:Hi all
>>   Vrikson Acosta:Hello everyone ... I see familiar faces from Kobe :)
>>   Olga Kyryliuk:Hi Everyone
>>   Tatiana Tropina:hi all
>>   Mili:hello everyone
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Hi all
>>   Antonella Perini:hi everyone!
>>   Shah Rahman:Hi Everyone
>>   Julf Helsingius:It is often the same :)
>>   Martin Silva Valent:hi
>>   Bukola Oronti:Hello everyone
>>   Martin Silva Valent:yees
>>   Amr Elsadr:Can hear you fine.
>>   Olga Kyryliuk:yes
>>   Julf Helsingius:loud and clear
>>   Amr Elsadr:@Tatiana: Right. The CCT Review feeds in to the sub pro PDP.
>>   katambi Joan:hi everyone
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Hi Joan!
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Excellent points to raise AMr
>>   Amr Elsadr:From GAC Communique: The GAC advises the Board to: i. Take
>> necessary steps to ensure that the GNSO EPDP on the Temporary Specification
>> for gTLD Registration Data institutes concrete milestones, progress reports
>> and an expeditious timeline, similar to Phase 1, for concluding Phase 2
>> activities;
>>   Amr Elsadr:GNSO Response: As manager of the PDP process the GNSO
>> Council is very aware of the work being conducted within the ePDP. (i) We
>> are conscious of the workload involved with phase 1 and our respective
>> groups have committed to working through phase 2 in a timely fashion. (ii)
>> The GNSO Council has discussed and reconfirmed the scope of the Phase 2, as
>> provided in the EPDP Charter.
>>   Julf Helsingius:Problem is that the council doersn't have a strong
>> position, leaving it to the WG leadership
>>   Amr Elsadr:@Julf: Would have been interesting to include that in the
>> GNSO response. :-)
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:The majority in Council has a strong
>> position.
>>   Julf Helsingius:We couldn't have agreed in the drafting team
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:We and the Contracted parties agree
>> on this.
>>   Amr Elsadr:I'd characterize the response as ambiguous, more than
>> neutral. :-)
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:The problem is that it sets us up
>> for interminable wrangling on the EPDP.  And small groups dashing on ahead.
>>   Julf Helsingius:It is a discussion that has to happen at the council
>> level, not drafting team
>>   Amr Elsadr:Thanks, Tatiana. Was looking for the context you gave, not a
>> definitive answer. :-)
>>   Tatiana Tropina:Amr :) Julf, yes
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Suggest you get in there and make a
>> strong statement
>>   Julf Helsingius:Everything was already said :)
>>   Tatiana Tropina:BTW, Julf, I hope I didn't take over your intervention
>> - so swamped here, didn't realise that you were on the call and could
>> probably give a much better overview of this work on GAC communique
>>   Rafik Dammak:yes
>>   Amr Elsadr:@Rafik: I don't believe the response needs to be edited.
>> It's ambiguity relieves the GNSO and the EPDP Team of any commitments, so
>> I'm ok with it. Just thought it a little strange not to address the
>> communique directly, which is the purpose of the GNSO response, no?
>>   Julf Helsingius:Tatiana: you did a good job, I had an AC hangup at that
>> point
>>   Juan Manuel Rojas:Hi all
>>   Tatiana Tropina:Amr, I guess so (agree with you)
>>   Amr Elsadr:Quite a few contracted parties on the TSG, no?
>>   Julf Helsingius:Amr: we were under time pressure, and Paul McGrady
>> would never have agreed
>>   Tatiana Tropina:Julf, yup. sigh.
>>   Tatiana Tropina:it was a task on "how to say something nice to say
>> nothing and leave a room for maneuvre"
>>   Julf Helsingius:Fortunately I am good at not saying anything :)
>>   Tatiana Tropina::))))
>>   Elsa Saade:hey all, sorry I’m late, running after trains
>>   Ayden Férdeline:they are not inaccurate
>>   Tatiana Tropina:Elsa, all good, we are approaching IGO INGO
>>   Tatiana Tropina:which you might love to talk about!
>>   Tatiana Tropina::P
>>   Ayden Férdeline:i have suddenly lost audio, not sure if othershave
>>   Tatiana Tropina:Ayden on the phone bridge audio is fine
>>   Ayden Férdeline:hmm i am on the phone bridge
>>   Julf Helsingius:Ayden: I had that earlier, had to restart AC
>>   Tatiana Tropina:then it's really hmmm, works perfectly ...
>>   Ayden Férdeline:dialing in again
>>   Maria Otanes:I'm on the phone bridge as well and have not lost audio.
>> Could you please try dialing back in?
>>   Tatiana Tropina:ah okay I had a dial out from AC (if it makes any
>> difference)
>>   Maria Otanes:thank you. please let me know if you're still having audio
>> issues
>>   Elsa Saade:tanya, i probably won’t be able to speak at all!! but here
>> to listen and chat only unfortunately. it’s a bad time for me!
>>   Tatiana Tropina:Elsa, oh. xx
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Which recommendation is it that is
>> inaccurate?
>>   Amr Elsadr:I think it was rec#16
>>   Amr Elsadr:On Geo Distinction.
>>   Amr Elsadr:The GNSO Council report says that the NCSG opposed this
>> recommendation.
>>   Amr Elsadr:Sorry, but what agenda are we following on this call?
>>   Amr Elsadr:Not the Council agenda, right?
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Karklins
>>   Elsa Saade:can we have scrolling control Maryam?
>>   Maria Otanes:the council agenda is now scrollable
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Also Karklins is supposed to be
>> chair of standing committee of WIPO.  Is that true?
>>   Elsa Saade:my bad, thanks!!
>>   Amr Elsadr:They were both rather poor choices. Pretty messed up that we
>> ended up with Karklins.
>>   Ayden Férdeline:Chair of WIPO General Assembly
>>   Amr Elsadr:@Stephanie: I believe so.
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:I don't understand why Chris Lahatte
>> is considered a bad candidate
>>   Amr Elsadr:Far from perfect.
>>   Ayden Férdeline:I have just re-reviewed the Council's  Recommendations
>> Report on EPDP and I continue to disagree with the assertion that our
>> position is misrepresented.
>>   Amr Elsadr:@Stephanie: Chris was also a terrible candidate. Don't know
>> that he has the faintest clue about GNSO policy development, or gTLDs.
>>   Amr Elsadr:Can't think of any successful stories for him at ICANN to
>> support his candidacy.
>>   Amr Elsadr:I'd actually probably pick Karklins over La Hatte.
>>   Martin Silva Valent:but why one over the other? besides not habing a
>> 3rd option
>>   Martin Silva Valent:having^
>>   Amr Elsadr:They were the only two options, Martin. Nobody else applied.
>>   Martin Silva Valent:I know, but why the ssc chose one over the other
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:when faced with a situation like
>> that, go to plan B.  Plan B is to hire a mediator to chair.
>>   Amr Elsadr:@Martin: Aaah. If you get an answer to that question,
>> please share it. :-)
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:we are now set up to fail, folks
>>   Kathy Kleiman:Agree with Stephanie
>>   Collin Kurre:Hi all, sorry for joining late
>>   Amr Elsadr:Hey there, Collin.
>>   Kathy Kleiman:Karlins is not a friend of GNSO or NCSG
>>   Kathy Kleiman:Very much in favor of strong GAC rights
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Thanks Kathy, I have not read
>> everything he said and wrote during that period but I read enough to reach
>> that conclusion!
>>   Amr Elsadr:Keeping Karklins honest will probably be a ton of work in
>> itself.
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Between that and the WIPO
>> connection?  we are dead.
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:I do not know the man, he could be a
>> wonderful person, but his former positions on matters ought to have ruled
>> him out
>>   Kathy Kleiman:We shouldnp't have to fight the chair at the outset
>>   Amr Elsadr:@Ayden: Why specifically comms between leadership and NCSG?
>>   Amr Elsadr:What about the rest of the Council?
>>   Kathy Kleiman:Who was the third - Karklins, Chris, ?
>>   Ayden Férdeline: it is not my place to speak on behalf of other GNSO
>> stakeholder groups
>>   Elsa Saade:do we have trust in the process of letting a subjective
>> chair who makes biased decisions go?
>>   Tatiana Tropina:Kathy, no third
>>   Amr Elsadr:@Kathy: No third candidate.
>>   Ayden Férdeline:i can only note that communication between leadership
>> and the NCSG is non-existent
>>   Amr Elsadr:@Ayden: It should be no more and no less than comms with
>> any other group.
>>   Kathy Kleiman:tx - wish we had a third.
>>   Ayden Férdeline:i have lost audio again
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:lost sound
>>   Kathy Kleiman:Did we just lose Rafik?
>>   Collin Kurre:I've lost audio as well
>>   Tatiana Tropina:me too
>>   Amr Elsadr:I lost audio too.
>>   Elsa Saade: me too
>>   Olga Kyryliuk:me too
>>   Julf Helsingius:Just lost audio -
>>   Amr Elsadr:Ah..., it's Rafik's audio.
>>   katambi Joan:me too
>>   Ayden Férdeline:@amr - it shouldn't be but it is
>>   Ayden Férdeline:in my assessment
>>   Martin Silva Valent:then should we ask for this to be removed of the
>> consent agenda before it goes to voting?
>>   Pascal Bekono:I think that we can think about frequent trainings
>> sessions for applicants. especially concerning their expectations
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:I would appreciate it if our
>> councillors could raise the matter of Karklins neutrality.
>>   Elsa Saade:i think since we know Karklins isnt the good option, we keep
>> an eye out, and we hold him accountable?
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:At the council meeting
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:How exactly can we hold him
>> accountable?  He is going to agree procedurally to a small group option,
>> where we will be outnumbered.  He will cut us off when speaking
>>   Elsa Saade:if we trust the process, that is
>>   Ayden Férdeline:yes, i agree we should separate the roles
>>   Kathy Kleiman:Agree with Stephanie --
>>   Kathy Kleiman:It's difficult for members to hold Chairs accountable.
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:we already have Goran approving a
>> parallel process in the TSG where we were not represented.
>>   Elsa Saade:as chair, he should not! no? procedurally
>>   Kathy Kleiman:My memory of Karklins is that he was not a consenss
>> builder - he was a GAC builder
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:That is what I pulled from the
>> records.  NEarly wrote a whole chapter on the expansion of the GAC role....
>>   Ayden Férdeline:we cannot hold Karklins accountable
>>   Kathy Kleiman:Are thre commitments we can have him make?
>>   Elsa Saade:we can say that we are very wary about the role Karklins
>> will play. we can proceed with him in good faith, but if at any point, he
>> shows bias leading to bypassing ncsg, the.n we’ll make a case for it loud
>> and clear
>>   Kathy Kleiman:Any type of checklist we can impose now - prior
>> agreements - and if he violates, he has to leave?
>>   Kathy Kleiman:It's harsh, but it's an intermediary position
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Keep an eye  out for the new
>> bahavioural guidelines that the OMbudsman will be shaking at us, it is
>> intended to empower Chairs.
>>   Elsa Saade:pdp 3.0 could be one way to have leverage
>>   Amr Elsadr:The Council liaison doesn't necessarily have to be a
>> member/alternate of the EPDP Team.
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Read those guidelines everybody.
>> They are meant to control behaviour of committee members.
>>   Ayden Férdeline:sounds troubling
>>   Kathy Kleiman:sigh
>>   Elsa Saade:oh interesting
>>   Kathy Kleiman:we only need behaviorial guidelines for truly outlier
>> actions
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:I understand that there have been
>> situations that prompted their development, but this one is in the
>> be-careful-waht- you-ask-for bucket
>>   Kathy Kleiman:Aren't all members of the EPDP entitled to a sense of
>> security - that their views will be heard and their work will be valued?
>>   Amr Elsadr:I'd prefer a small leadership team than a large one.
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:All children have the right to live
>> in a happy home, but that does not stop domestic vilence
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:(okay maybe that example is a bit
>> extreme....)
>>   Amr Elsadr:There are no plans to ammend the charter at all.
>>   Amr Elsadr:Why would a change to the charter be required?
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:having the second candidate as a
>> vice hchair would make me a lot happier
>>   Tatiana Tropina:Amr, as long as we can have several vice chairs without
>> amending the charter it's good
>>   Tatiana Tropina:Amr, I hope NOT.
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Then we could leave the job of
>> controlling bias in the chair to the vice chair.
>>   Amr Elsadr:Several VCs can be messy. And I don't believe there is any
>> need to change the charter anyway.
>>   Tatiana Tropina:ah okay good, Rafik. Because I do believe that in this
>> case it's not a council matter it's EPDP matter
>>   Kathy Kleiman:What about Chris as Co-Chair?
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:So can our councillors raise that
>> option, if we fail to get a change in Chair selection?
>>   Tatiana Tropina:but that's what I was trying to say, if it doesn't
>> concern the charter than it's EPDP level
>>   Amr Elsadr:@Kathy: Please NO!! :D
>>   Kathy Kleiman:@Amr - Karklins is not a process guy. He's a dictator
>>   Kathy Kleiman:Chris is a t least a process guy...
>>   Elsa Saade:rafik, we did not really get to consensus! that worries me
>>   Ayden Férdeline:why didn't our member on Council leadership consult
>> with us?
>>   Amr Elsadr:@Stephanie: And my understanding is that he didn't apply
>> until after the extension to the deadline.
>>   Kathy Kleiman:@Amr, I've seen Chris operate publicliy and privately.
>> At least he is fair.
>>   Tatiana Tropina:My question is what are we going to get strategically
>> from standing against the guy.
>>   Tatiana Tropina:except him hating us even more at the end if we don't
>> have enough support
>>   Tatiana Tropina:I guess we can flag unhappiness
>>   Amr Elsadr:@Kathy: If Karklins gives us trouble, I (and others, I
>> suspect) will not make his job easy for him. I'd prefer to wait and see how
>> he works out, then react appropriately.
>>   Ayden Férdeline:@Tatiana - yes, that's the fear . - we really
>> can'toppose him now, we have to rubber stamp him because of the position we
>> have been put in
>>   Tatiana Tropina:I much prefer Chris who is a professional mediator
>>   Elsa Saade:i think we. should really take advantage of the fact that
>> procedures are being built by gnso to hold chairs accountable
>>   Kathy Kleiman:But we could request a co-chair or additional vice chair
>>   Amr Elsadr:I don't believe that Karklins or La Hatte are ideal chair
>> options for any PDP, let alone one as complex as this one.
>>   Tatiana Tropina:Ayden, I don't want to rubber stamp anyone. I was one
>> of the first raising unhappiness... I am wondering what we can do
>> strategically.
>>   Tatiana Tropina:Amr, am with you, except that I'd prefer a professinal
>> mediator to GAC/WIPO guy
>>   Ayden Férdeline:i would also like us to re-assess Council leadership.
>> if communication isn't going to improve, and it isn't because it has been
>> atrocious for a year now, it is time for us to investigate changing it
>>   Amr Elsadr:There's a WIPO guy co-chairing the RPMs PDP. :-)
>>   Kathy Kleiman:Is Karklins also working for WIPO?
>>   Ayden Férdeline:Karklins is the chair of WIPO's General Assembly
>>   Tatiana Tropina:Amr, the RPM WIPO guy is fine :) he has nice co-chairs
>>   Amr Elsadr:@Kathy: No, but he chairs the WIPO GA at the UN.
>>   Kathy Kleiman:WIPO wants accessa nd WIPO works for IPC
>>   Ayden Férdeline:i think Chris as co-chair is the only real option we
>> can consider now
>>   Amr Elsadr:I fail to see how that is a real option.
>>   Tatiana Tropina:Can we realistically get CPH supporting us on co chair
>> or whatever option
>>   Tatiana Tropina:till Thursday
>>   Kathy Kleiman:Brian Beckham is very nice, but he also meets regularly
>> withIPC and no other SGs
>>   Kathy Kleiman:(RPM WG)
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:WIPO would be a good choice on
>> RPMs.  NOt on compliance with GDPR.
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:I cannot believe I am having to
>> argue about this.
>>   Kathy Kleiman:I can see not wanting to vote against Karklins directly,
>> but the idea of having co-chairs might help -- a lot
>>   Elsa Saade:it is a bad situation for sure, but what can be done at the
>> moment?
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Amr we cannot let process defeat us.
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Spoken by a former bureaucrat.  You
>> have to know when you are about to be hung on your own process
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:they should not have announced the
>> winner prior to discussion at Council.
>>   Ayden Férdeline:completely agree Stephanie
>>   Kathy Kleiman:@Stephanie - agreed.
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:If that does not indicate the
>> favoured position I don't know what does....That in itself is an abuse of
>> process.
>>   Kathy Kleiman:@Amr - we don't have access to people who will work that
>> many hours as a leader for free
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Check the two letters that went to
>> the candidates.
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Chris was told thanks for
>> applying....Karklins was told he was leader subject to vote at council
>>   Tatiana Tropina:Amr, I agree with you. I am very very unhappy with the
>> WIPO guy, but I just don't see how voting him down will benefit us and see
>> how it will damage
>>   Kathy Kleiman:Where is CPH?
>>   Tatiana Tropina:if necessary, I will vote against him and raise my
>> concerns. But I do not see how we can do anything without CPH support and
>> am not sure we have it
>>   Amr Elsadr:Chris annonced on FB that he applied for the job early on in
>> the process (before the deadline extension).
>>   Elsa Saade:are we the only unhappy ones?
>>   Tatiana Tropina:Elsa, we are the only unhappy and loud
>>   Amr Elsadr:@Ayden: check the GNSO WG Guidelines.
>>   Rafik Dammak:appeal 3.7
>>   Kathy Kleiman:That's interesting that CPH is not raising concerns...
>>   Kathy Kleiman:I would think they would have similar issues to NCSG
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:I believe that the contracted
>> parties are prepared to support this person.  They have not objected.  They
>> are getting what they want through the TSG perhaps??
>>   Kathy Kleiman:But they probably don't remember Karklins...
>>   Elsa Saade:might be worthwhile reaching out
>>   Kathy Kleiman:+1
>>   Kathy Kleiman:and to see if they would like Chris as a Co-Chair or Vice
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:I certainly raised my objections on
>> the skype coordination channel.
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Make sure you specify Chris Lahatte,
>> or we will get Chris Disspain....
>>   Taiwo Peter Akinremi:Hi all
>>   Kathy Kleiman::-)
>>   Elsa Saade:and Steph was there no reaction?
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:not really
>>   Elsa Saade:interesting
>>   Amr Elsadr:Contracted Parties seem to be ok with Karklins being
>> appointed.
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Elliot is now working with Steve del
>> Bianco on the trust model...ie who accredits
>>   Amr Elsadr:..., or at least willing to give him a try before passing
>> judgment. Not sure what they are basing their reasoning on.
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:problem will be what to do if I am
>> correct AMr.
>>   Benjamin Akinmoyeje (Nigeria):I believe irrespective of who the chair
>> is , it is good we know the outlook of the chair...we can be determine to
>> maintain our interest all through the process.
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:None of them were around when
>> Karklins was GAC chair, nor are they expert on govt overreach
>>   Amr Elsadr:If WE are correct, and he turns out to be a difficult Chair,
>> it'll mean a lot more work on our part in terms of working with/against him.
>>   Elsa Saade:yea i think if we hold back it could be interpreted as bad
>> faith
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:what do you mean hold back?  I don't
>> think objecting to the lack of neutrality of a chair is showing bad faith.
>>   Elsa Saade:by holding back i mean voting no without a suggesion
>>   Elsa Saade:suggestion*
>>   Amr Elsadr:I had no problem with how reporting to the Council was done
>> for phase 1. I believe all GNSO SGs/Cs had all the info they needed, either
>> via the liaison, or their reps on the EPDP Team.
>>   Elsa Saade:trying to understand CPH’s silence on Karklins
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:Welll I think the order of
>> procedures is as follows: 1 object to the lack of neutrality of the Chair,
>> on WIPO and former GAC chair grounds.  Demand an explanation of how he has
>> committed to neutrality whilst maintaining his role at WIPO.
>>   Ayden Férdeline:so glad you were happy with the reporting Amr!
>>   Amr Elsadr:@Ayden: So I'm happy, and you're glad. :-)
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:2.  Ask for a control meausre in the
>> event that council insists on his selection.  POint out the contempt for
>> council inherent in sending option 2 candidate away prior to the vote , or
>> indeed even announcing prior to the Council discussion.
>>   Elsa Saade:honestly? i’ve been incessantly talking about this on
>> council. im not entirely sure how long i can hold my breath on this
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:3.  Suggest some
>> workarounds....chris as vice chair, David from the Mediation team as vice
>> chair, etc.  Choose another vice chair, I would be happy to be vice chair.
>>   Elsa Saade:and i’ve asked over and over again for us to post our
>> reasons in detail for why we’re making such a decision
>>   Rafik Dammak:yes
>>   Elsa Saade:i dont think that happened really
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:yes
>>   Elsa Saade:<question> what kind of precedent are we setting by
>> approving this recommendation? <endquestion>
>>   Kathy Kleiman:other options sound good!
>>   Elsa Saade:id like to know ur thoughts folks
>>   Kathy Kleiman:has anyone reached out to you?
>>   Kathy Kleiman:(NCSG?)
>>   Martin Silva Valent:nice to know I wasn't that crazy to oppose to this
>> !
>>   Elsa Saade:wish i could speak
>>   Elsa Saade: but ill send thoughts on the list
>>   Elsa Saade:i think Amr raised very interesting questions about this in
>> Kobe (IDNs)
>>   Elsa Saade:i think there should be a council liaison normally
>>   Elsa Saade:that is not procedural though
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:we are not going to get to the
>> discussion on membership on the GNSO drafting team for IANA transition
>> ....we need someone who was on the CCWG to join.  I do not have sufficient
>> background to be effective, am just holding the fort.
>>   Kathy Kleiman:Hi All-- I have to run. Tx for the meeting.
>>   Kathy Kleiman:Quicck note that SubPro is now in final negotiation of
>> key rules for New gTLDs.
>>   Kathy Kleiman:And we need more people and more  voices to defend our
>> positions.
>>   stephanie.perrin at mail.utoronto.ca:We also need to appoint Julf as our
>> voting member on the Auction proceeds, requires a formal notification to
>> give him the vote.
>>   Kathy Kleiman:We worked really hard on our comments, many of which are
>> minority. They will help protect future new registries from all over the
>> world. If we can defend them :-)
