Jim, Not really sure this is relevant to DNS-WG, but... On Oct 16, 2009, at 9:43 AM, Jim Reid wrote: > What's the point in engaging in a policy discussion about new gTLDs now?

"we think it's a Bad Idea to have lots of new TLDs", ICANN will be receptive to those representations? Of course they will, provided they are backed up with data instead of just unsubstantiated opinion. I know it is hard for some folks to believe, but ICANN staff really does take the "ensure security and stability" aspect of what ICANN does quite seriously. > I think it's not unreasonable to say that although the ICANN processes try to be open, they made/make it difficult for the technical community to participate in a meaningful way. I won't bother trying to refute this as you appear to have your mind made up that ICANN wants to destroy the Internet. I will say that if you have any constructive suggestions on how to improve the ability for the technical community to provide input, I'd be interested in hearing them. Regards, -drc
