I just blogged about this. It's a short summary but gives you all the
essence.

Can someone in the VI WG provide an update on how things are going?
There is a lot of traffic on the Council list indicating that it is
possible the WG may not have consensus on important points before the
Board meeting in September.  I think many would agree that allowing the
current language in DAG4 to remain unchanged is problematic.

I certainly hope the single registrant/private registry exception has
support.  As I mentioned in Brussels, this exclusion is important for
not-for-profit organizations or other entities that may consider a new
gTLD for purposes that are not driven by a profit motive, but rather, to
create a safer place to execute its mission or to deliver its services.
Many companies and not-for-profit organizations that are considering new
gTLDs may not intend to offer registrations to the public.

Thanks,
Debbie
