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>
