RE: [gnso-vi-feb10] Revised Table Entry for JRACKBOATDESK VI proposal

["Neuman, Jeff" <Jeff.Neuman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks Kathy,

For the record, so far the following companies are more in line with the JN2 
proposal than the RACK+ proposal, and are therefore signing onto the JN2 line.  
While few of the signatories below believe the JN2 is perfect, on balance, they 
believe it is more pro-competition than the other alternative and provides a 
better basis from which to work.

Neustar
Demand Media
Network Solutions
Domain Dimensions
Key-Systems GmbH
Phil Buckingham
INDOM
Blacknight
Dynamic Network Services, Inc
EuroDNS

Just to restate the above, each of the signatories vehemently oppose the RACK+ 
proposal, and believe working from the JN2 as a baseline would be more 
constructive for the VI-WG.  What is interesting in this coalition of 
signatories is that many of them believe the space should be completely opened 
up, but in the spirit of compromise have temporarily conceded that position in 
order to move forward.  This is a huge sacrifice on their part and I applaud 
them for working with us and coming so far.   Speaking on behalf of Neustar, 
the RACK+ proposal would actually be more economically beneficial for us to be 
honest, but it is on our view, inconsistent with previous positions we have 
taken before ICANN staff, the ICANN Board and the US Government.  In addition, 
in our view, the RACK+ proposal is not the right thing to do for the Internet 
community.

I will let the other signatories weigh in with their additional thoughts.
