The reason I ask is because where a sponsor exists (2000, 2004
contracts) and I assume where a Community registration policy exists
(2013), policy and implementation are not generic, and possibly
outside of the scope of the GNSO subsequent to contract (2000, 2004)
and/or contract if not evaluation (2013).

I recall working a competitive registrar exception at the Montevideo
meeting in 2000 with Louis, and while it was partially undone by the
Registrar Constituency of the period, it remained partially in effect
and remains a standing exception to a Consensus Policy (until
revisited in the VI WG and the Board's vote ending the existing
separation rule.
