Hi all

We are in middle of ferocious election campaign - voting 21 August - an example of the outside pressures!

Cheers

Excellent point, Rafik.  I suspect there are times when it is difficult
for many of us to respond to emails and requests within 48 hours!  I
would have preferred to get the comment prepared sooner, but I was lucky
to finish by this morning.

Hello,

first thanks to Debbie for her comments and keeping doing that, we
should undoubtedly follow her example :)

honestly, I am becoming uncomfortable that we have every time to deal
with  one-day-before-deadline-written comments and then being pushed in
policy committee to make quick decision, I understand that people who
volunteer to draft comment are really busy with their professional
duties. in order to allow our members to react, one week before deadline
sounds suitable and fair (anyway I am not blaming anybody about that,
mea culpa as I didn't make my homework of comments too).

I agree with third option . I understand that Milton's explanatory part
is appropriate for first option?

Regards

Rafik

The only problem with a "full" endorsement by NCSG is that it might
imply that Debbie's comments address the_only_ issues we care about as
NCSG. There are a broad range of other issues her comments don't
address.

We might solve this by attaching to our endorsement the following
proviso:

"The NSCG is deeply concerned about a number of issues raised by the VI
WG. Lacking the time to develop a more complete statement touching on
all those issues, we fully support the comments of the American Red
Cross on the issue of exceptions for Single-Registrant, Single-User TLD
applications, and their comments regarding criteria for an exceptions
procedure."
