Milton, Good summary. I noticed you did point out that a number of existing registries favored limitations when talking about the more restrictive proposals, you neglected to state that most of the support for the so-called "Free Trade" proposal came from existing registrars wanting to get into the registry businesses and wanting to distribute their own TLD. In fact, a large composition of the group consists of such registrars. I am not saying this is a bad thing, but it cuts a little against your message about more liberalization. In addition, we need to be careful as to how the numbers are used. Remember my ice cream analogy I posted here (which I will reprint unedited here): "My caution, however, is that some are now describing the “Free Trade” proposal as the one that most people support because of the number of people that either said “yes” or “can live with.” I do not believe that view is entirely accurate. This is because both the JN2 proposal and the RACK+ proposal both dealt with limitations on ownership/control. People were divided on how exactly to limit ownership/control, but not on the concept of whether to apply restrictions. The analogy I use is my oldest daughter’s birthday party this year where the kids had a choice of “Mixed Fruit”, “Chocolate Ice Cream” or “Vanilla Ice Cream”. 7 kids (surprisingly) chose mixed fruit, 6 kids chose chocolate ice cream and 6 kids chose “Vanilla Ice Cream”. So of the 19 kids at the party, more of them chose Fruit than any other choice, so that would be a true statement. However, it would also be true that more kids choice “Ice Cream” in general instead of fruit. Here we have the same type of thing. Taken one way, more people chose the Free Trade Proposal than chose RACK. But, looked at a different way, more people chose to apply limits on cross ownership/control than chose Free Trade. We just need to remember the ice cream/mixed fruit analogy going forward. P.S. Never have a party with 19 screaming 5 year olds and offer them ice cream….very messy and the sugar high afterwards is a killer ☺" But I do appreciate your summary.
