    Thanks to those that put this together, I think it provides some
    useful clarity.<br>
    I should also note that this document was discussed within the
    Registrar Stakeholder Group, and while there is no formal stance on
    it, there was considerable support for much of it's content.<br>
    There were some questions around the make-up and function of the
    CSC, and that input will be sent to the DT working on that
    component.<br>
    <br>
    Thanks<br>
    <br>
