Dear Chuck,<br>
<br>
an IFRT with Registries having a significant role would be, in my
opinion, an unbalanced group - and it is precisely when a group is
unbalanced that it then risks being used for lobbying, influence and
purposes other than one that is balanced where everyone has the
ability to restore balance.<br>
<br>
The ATRT is multistakeholder group. As a result, it is not
political. I see the IFRT as something similar, for IANA. That's
where the multistakeholder balance need to be.<br>
<br>
Kindest regards,<br>
<br>
Olivier<br>

are you cringing at Olivier? The separation review would be
done by the IFRT with full community involvement. The IFRT
would not be led or controlled by registries; they would
just have a significant role. I will say it again: the
IFRT is M-S.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

did not say that IFRT should be largely composed of ccTLD
and gTLD registries. I simply said that the IFRT
composition should have stronger participation of ccTLD
and gTLD registries than is proposed currently. If the
IFRT is doing a separation review, it is more important
than ever for there to be strong direct customer
participation. I fully agree that IFRT must be M-S.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

I cringe at this. If the decision for separation is to be
decided by the IRFT then it will need to be accepted by all
SOs & ACs & the group needs to be multistakeholder.<br>
The CSC is already Registry-led, and quite rightly so.
Separation does not solely affect direct customers. It is such
a large step, it affects everyone.<br>
