[Epdp-dt] Edits to the charter

[Stephanie Perrin]

I agree with all of Rubens' observations, and would note that changing 
"unified" to "uniform" is already a policy decision.  ICANN called its 
model a "Unified access model".  It will not and cannot be uniform 
across some parameters, so I find it misleading as a label.  Access 
model is sufficient.

And to reiterate, we do not have the bandwidth to do both at the same 
time. Furthermore, setting up an implementation scheme is implementation.

cheers Stephanie
