Yes, but I am just asking for one excessive sentence to be taken out.

The modification I am suggesting is not "against" compliance, it simply 
suggests that it is unrealistic, if not impossible, to expect a compliance 
program fully equipped for the challenges of the new TLD policies to be in 
place and operational _before_ the new TLD program actually happens.  It's like 
saying that you have to be absolutely sure your military can win a battle 
before you go into the battle.  The fact of the matter is, you don't really 
know how your military performs in a certain kind of battle until you go into 
it. And you had better be prepared to make adjustments as you enter the battle, 
otherwise you will surely lose.

Interesting to note in the poll just taken that the compliance statement (see 
row K)  of the approx 30 persons who actually expressed an opinion on this 
statement
approx 85% could live with or were in favor of this proposal
