Re: {Disarmed} RE: [gnso-vi-feb10] Revised Table Entry for JRACKBOATDESK VI proposal

["Michele Neylon :: Blacknight" <michele@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just to confirm what Jeff was saying .. 

We (Blacknight) support the JN2 proposal over the Afilias (RACK$thing) as we 
strongly believe in an open competitive market. As Jeff has said - we do not 
think that JN2 is perfect, but it's a compromise we can live with for the moment

Regards

Michele
