Many would consider that there are none such. However, internal evidence suggests that CWG considers that there are some.</div><div><br></div><div>In which case, to the best of my knowledge, the only candidates are .int, .gov, .edu and .mil. or .arpa,</div><div>thus the DT-C comments under point 11, would appear to be a rather odd circumlocution, if the intention is to ensure that the USG-based TLDs, or the ICANN-based TLDs, would somehow have an 'extra' seat on the CSC.</div><div><br></div><div>I drew this question to your attention in my mail, below, of 26 February, but did not receive a reply.</div><div>Having reviewed in some detail the most recent version of the CWG transition proposal, I still find no reference to the above TLDs (with the exception of .int)</div><div><br></div><div>Indeed, if it is the CWG position that these TLDs should be somehow 'grandfathered' outside the IANA transition, then may I suggest that it behoves someone - not excluding NTIA - to say so clearly, now.</div><div>Otherwise there will be a lingering misunderstanding that would sit uncomfortably with the underlying proposition that the IANA transition is to the global multistakeholder Internet community.</div><div><br></div><div>Regards</div><div><br></div><div>CW</div><div><br></div><div><blockquote type="cite"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; "><br><div>Begin forwarded message:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div style="margin: 0px; "><b>From: </b>CW Lists <<a href="mailto:lists@christopherwilkinson.eu">lists@christopherwilkinson.eu</a>><br></div><div style="margin: 0px; "><b>Subject: </b><b>Re: [CWG-Stewardship] Draft Proposal Version 2.0</b><br></div><div style="margin: 0px; "><b>Date: </b>26 Feb 2015 13:50:44 GMT+01:00<br></div><div style="margin: 0px; "><b>To: </b>Lise Fuhr <<a href="mailto:lise.fuhr@difo.dk">lise.fuhr@difo.dk</a>>, Jonathan Robinson <<a href="mailto:jrobinson@afilias.info">jrobinson@afilias.info</a>><br></div><div style="margin: 0px; "><b>Cc: </b>"<a href="mailto:cwg-stewardship@icann.org">cwg-stewardship@icann.org</a> Stewardship" <<a href="mailto:cwg-stewardship@icann.org">cwg-stewardship@icann.org</a>><br></div><br><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">Jonathan, Lise:<br><br>Thankyou for another draft magnum opus.
