<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>This message
transmits to you the endorsements of the Commercial Stakeholder Group for the
Whois and SSR review teams. It reflects the decisions taken by the CSG
Executive Committee (copied here) on August 17, based on the consultations of
Executive Committee members with their respective constituencies. (I
should also note that CSG sponsored a well-attended candidates' forum by
teleconference on August 4.) </span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The CSG also
urges the Council to forward a full slate of 4 endorsed candidates (one per
stakeholder group) to the SSR review team selectors, even though the selectors
have stated their intention to select only three GNSO candidates to the RT. </span><o:p></o:p></p>
