<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif">Jason,</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif">As I stated on the call, I think we’re doing very well as a group.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif">And I take exception that there was a “blindside attack” by the participants of the call. The discussion was how much weight to give individual voices vs. the collective voices of organizations
– an issue we must deal with often, both delicately & judiciously when reviewing community input in a consensus environment.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif">Our “duty” is to do the best we can with the time that we have and to be aware of, but not subordinate to, other working groups. We need not wonder about the interplay of constituent
groups when those folks are represented on our own calls.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif">Again, your characterization of granting a “super priority to a limited class” misses the fact that this RPM was the result of years of discussion as part of a whole, new gTLD environment
created by consensus of ICANN constituencies. As such, it requires consensus to re-make the RPM.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif">We’re all aware that there are documented cases of abuse on both sides of this mechanism. The question is how to address it. Unfortunately, the Proposal on the table, such as it is,
is not acceptable to half of stakeholders.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif">Therefore, if there’s a new “workable way to have oversight” then someone in the working group should propose a modified Proposal 7, which can then be reviewed by the group, which could
then choose to support, not support, or refer to the GNSO for further action.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Century Gothic",sans-serif">Outside of a modified Proposal 7, we should move forward rather than re-hashing ground covered last week.</span></p>

agree that I said before that I stand on my position to everybody that we don't have consensus and that's what's that's what's troubling. We can't even get something out of, out of the gate here, which is a very important issue, but I agree, we move on. Great.

importance to the working group's mandate and, frankly, its legitimacy. There were substantive issues raised in the comments which were not discussed, and which warrant the group's consideration.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In advance of tomorrow’s call, I am requesting that we continue discussion on the
<u>merits</u> of TMCH Question #7. Upon reflection, at the end of the last WG call, we neither discussed the public comments nor debated the underlying merits of the positions regarding opening of the TMCH.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As we are all aware, we are not debating whether or not there has been abuse of the TMCH. The only question is how much abuse has occurred. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Further, those opposed to opening the TMCH DB to oversight appear to object on the basis that cybersquatters and wrongdoers will abuse the newly opened DB. It does not appear that
<u>anyone</u> rejects having oversight of the TMCH or an ability to ensure that it is operating correctly (without abuse). Moreover, Deliotte itself commented that the TMCH should transition from a closed to open and searchable DB with the understanding
that it is up to the ICANN Community to make the determination. I recall we had discussed some compromise positions that were being considered as a way to bring oversight while protecting against cybersquatters.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Accordingly, I request that we be prepared to continue the discussion on the merits of TMCH Question 7 and find a workable position as a WG to review the TMCH and avoid abuse.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Regards,</p>
