[gnso-vi-feb10] clarification

[Milton L Mueller <mueller@xxxxxxx>]

In response to some discussions regarding the CAM proposal, I want to say that 
it allows for a Registry or RSP  to own up to 100% of a Registrar (and 
vice-versa) if the Registrar or its affiliates do not distribute that TLD, and 
that defined steps to mitigate harm are taken along with penalties and 
sanctions. If the Registry or RSP would like to distribute the TLD through the 
co-owned Registrar they would need to go through the CESP process as described 
in the CAM proposal. This was not stated explicitly in our original email 
because we did not see why anyone would object to 100% co-ownership if there 
was no distribution of the TLD.
