<FONT FACE="Optima, Times New Roman"><SPAN STYLE='font-size:10pt'>Berry — Thanks. Will the BC soon be asked to evaluate the 9 VI models presented thus far?<BR>
<BR>
Proposals are listed at:<BR>
<a href="https://st.icann.org/vert-integration-pdp/index.cgi?https_st_icann_org_vert_integration_pdp_index_cgi_vi_resources">https://st.icann.org/vert-integration-pdp/index.cgi?https_st_icann_org_vert_integration_pdp_index_cgi_vi_resources</a> <BR>
<BR>
Do you and the BC team on the VI working group have any favorites among those, or are we sitting on status quo?<BR>
<BR>
If no favorites, are there elements of any of these plans that the BC should consider supporting?<BR>
<BR>
Thanks,<BR>
Steve<BR>
