Re: [ga] FW: Fee for disproportionate deletes in proposed .biz contract

Elmar,
the funny thing is, that I responded to the question, but it seems 
people are more interested in the "juicy" discussion, not in the 
response to Danny's question. And as you may note, my response is 
based not on my thoughts, but on documents.

And if someone has asked me for my "opinion", I would have given it 
earlier. But I was asked for "guidance", and that is what kind of 
made me go into all details. Are we talking about bottom-up or 
top-bottom process here? Where are the solutions, provided by the 
community? I can tell you about problems around ICANN, which probably 
you don't even notice. But I want to hear the community provide 
solutions, not problems. If the community can not provide solutions, 
that's not good.
