Not having followed this process closely, I'm sort of surprised it's still at the stage of trying to devise rudimentary defs for its core terms...

I hesitate to just raise general concerns but I don't have time to focus on suggesting precise alternatives, so: shouldn't the choice or trust defs somehow entail the notions of confidence that one's rights (not just trademark obviously) will be fully protected and advance, e.g. privacy, foe, etc?

Shouldn't the competition def be more precise, e.g. building on standard antitrust/competition policy concepts about market power, abuse of dominant position, etc?  This came up in the VI context too, and to the extent that ICANN is always in a space where legal actions could arise, one would think they'd want to have a definition that is in tune with recognized parameters etc.

one cent,

Bill
