To be clear, my support was on behalf of the ALAC and not solely my own.
As I previously reported this was neither an easy nor unanimous decision
for ALAC, but approval was given for the compromise position.<br><br>

On behalf of the IOC/RCRC Drafting Team, I am pleased to present the
following motion which was supported by the Drafting Team. For the
record, I will note that the recommendations were not supported by the
Non-Commercial Stakeholder Group and Thomas Rickert, but were supported
by the Registries Stakeholder Group, the, Intellectual Property
Constituency, Business Constituency and ISP Constituency, the
representative from the ALAC, and those representatives from the
International Olympic Committee and the Red Cross/Red Crescent. The
Registrars Stakeholder group did not participate on the Drafting
Team.<br>
