RE: [gnso-vi-feb10] What do we mean by "single registrant"?

Whatever the new models are, one should not be given an advantage over
another. The policy laid out a set of principles based on years of
community debate and consensus building. Based on that, discussing when
registrars *should not* be used *is* out of scope. Perhaps the Council
needs to discuss and clarify.

Hi,

I do not beleive that this can be unilaterally ruled out of scope.

I think that it is key to any VI solution and without it, the status quo
as defined by the Board might as well remain in place as that only
affect business arrangements as opposed to affecting innovative new
models for TLDS.
