RE: [gnso-vi-feb10] Recommendation: Eliminate Section 4 of the Initial Report

We had a very long, very detailed discussion with the economists, and I
think it is very fair to document that.

Subject: [gnso-vi-feb10] Recommendation: Eliminate Section 4 of the
Initial Report

 

All,

 

In reading the Initial Report, I couldn't help but feel that the
inclusion of Section 4 is inappropriate.  Not only is it inaccurate to
state that we evaluated the Salop report, we in actuality never really
discussed it.  We had 1 call with the economists and there was such
large disagreement with many of the statements made by the economists.
In addition, there were several points the economists made that were not
in the initial report at all; Namely that requiring the use of
registrars at all is economically inefficient.


My point is not to debate the above, but to recommend we delete the
section.  It improperly gives too much attention to a report we did not
really consider.  It may be staff's position, but it is not the view of
the WG and therefore needs to go.


Thanks.
