Otherwise, we could be creating an “unfair playing field”.

I believe Susan Payne is drafting some language relative to priority for 2012 applications as well as priority for applications that remain unresolved when a future round closes. I am not sure how that language might (or might not) apply to a registry agreement issued in 2012 where the registry may desire to “switch” to any new policy adopted as to “Closed Generics”.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span style="color: rgb(31, 73, 125);" class=""><o:p class=""> </o:p></span></div><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span style="color: rgb(31, 73, 125);" class="">As to Board action and consideration of what the Board will do, one element that needs to be considered is the standing GAC Advice that a Closed Generic “should serve a public interest goal”.

It is clear for me that there is no scenario were with good faith and rational, even legitimacy, a board decision over closed generic should open them without our explicit consent to it and the rules it will have according to us in that case. The community holds the power and legitimacy in the bottom-up model in gTLDs, and not allowing the closed generic is the default because that was what current practice and previos board decisions have been. Specially since it is also clear there are clear community concerns of they even being allowed at all.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">So no, I do not think it is fair to say that we don0’t now what the board will say if we don’t agree, therefore we should agree on something. Not agreeing to open the generic is a valid solution and that means the current state of affairs holds, unless the board goes rogue and creates PDP new policy against the will of the constituencies entitled to create such policy. The temporal designo is the solution the board came to in the absence of us agreeing to have them in the first place. That is the logical solution and there is no reason to think otherwise. <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""> <o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class="">Best,<o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;" class=""><br class="">Martin Silva Valent</span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""><o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;" class=""> </span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""><o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;" class=""><a href="mailto:mpsilvavalent@gmail.com" moz-do-not-send="true" style="color: purple; text-decoration: underline;" class=""><span style="color: purple;" class="">mpsilvavalent@gmail.com</span></a></span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""><o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 12pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;" class=""><br class=""><b class="">Partner | Silva.legal<br class=""></b><a href="mailto:martin@silva.legal" moz-do-not-send="true" style="color: purple; text-decoration: underline;" class=""><span style="color: purple;" class="">martin@silva.legal</span></a></span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""><o:p class=""></o:p></span></p></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><b class=""><span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;" class="">Director | Dat.as</span></b><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""><o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;" class=""><a href="mailto:martin.silva@dat.as" moz-do-not-send="true" style="color: purple; text-decoration: underline;" class=""><span style="color: purple;" class="">martin.silva@dat.as</span></a></span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""><o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;" class=""> </span><span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""><o:p class=""></o:p></span></div></div></div><div class=""><div class=""><div style="margin: 0in 0in 0.0001pt; font-size: 12pt; font-family: "Times New Roman", serif;" class=""><span style="font-size: 9pt; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;" class="">Skype ID: mpsilvavalent<br class="">Tel: +5491164993943<br class="">Libertador 5990, Off. 406<br class="">Buenos Aires, Argentina.<br class=""><br class="">Este email, incluyendo adjuntos, podría contener información confidencial protegida por ley y es para uso exclusivo de su destinatario.
