Re: [gnso-vi-feb10] ORP in less than 200 words

[Jean Christophe VIGNES <jcvignes@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Mikey,

The Poll is a valid argument, although I'm not sure if Polling in itself is
enough to make a proposal "more worthy" or not.

As for the "level of scrutinity" however, I beg to differ: the Open Registry
Proposal was sent to the list, as the others, discussed on the list by many
as well as during our Brussels meeting... So it was scrutinized alright.

Among other things, I believe the fact that ORP has a strong Registrar
support makes it worthy of interest and consideration, as was (in a
different category) the recent IPC language.

The final decision is, obviously, yours and Roberto's, but I wanted to be
heard all the same.
