John:

Thanks for the comment.  That's just the kind of dialogue I am looking for 
here.  Others?

J. Scott, et. al.,
 
With regard to whether it will be a political bombshell or not, I cannot say, 
but as the GNSO Council liaison to the ccNSO Council I have come to appreciate 
the bright line they draw between the "g" and the "cc" name space.  I suspect 
that even if Stephane's suggestion would not be the incendiary device you 
foretell, it would be a distraction from the more urgent matter of solving the 
directory services problem for the the gTLDs.  I would vote not to include the 
language.
 
My two cents.
 
Berard
