may not have the institutional knowledge of the IGO issue, it's discussed in
pages 12-14 of the Issues Report.) I, for one, would welcome alternative
suggestions from David - or anyone for that matter - that take into account

reflect a mechanism that is believed to treat existing gTLD registrants fairly.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
