| One other quick thought in response to Champ's note:

| Given that NSI, and perhaps other registrars, are already implementing
| some of these recommendations, perhaps the constituency statement could
| reflect that we understand the concerns of the task force, but given the
| difficulties of implementation, we do not believe that recommendation #2
| is  practical and should not be adopted as consensus policy.  Instead,

| registrants on a voluntary basis.

I would support that approach. The essence of my objection lies with the
notion that both the policy and the implementation of the policy are
within bounds for the policy development process. In this case, specific
policies are enacted (good), and then the contractual method of
implementation is specified (bad).

This leaves us with very flexibility, and IMHO, a less competitive
system. It probably goes without saying that this is not a desirable
outcome.
