I agree. If the JN2 summary is allowed to stand, I would expect more
time for others to rewrite their proposals.

Per the earlier email dialogue,  i think we need to keep these summaries
strictly as statements of the features of each proposal.  The second
sentence (below) is a clear statement of intended benefit and a
criticism of other proposals.  Also, it is confusing to readers as JN2,
RACK, Free Trade and other proposals all prevent registrars from
applying - due to the structural separation requirements of those
proposals.    

All the perceived benefits and value of a proposal will be in the
Attachment for that proposal where it will be clearly identified as
coming from the proposal advocate.  What's in the body of the report has
the implied agreement of the WG.    Unless we want to turn this into an
exercise where everyone tries to slip in their favorite words for their
proposal I think Section 6 should simply be a factual statement of the
proposals features.

Anything that is in the body of the report is a reflection

Please find my short summary of the JN2+ proposal:
 
 
The JN2+ Proposal is intended to restrict Registry Operators and their
affiliates from distributing names within  the TLD for which Registry
Operator or its affiliate serves as the Registry Operator.  That said,
it recognizes that any proposal that outright prohibits a class of
entities from applying to be a Registry Operator is not in line with
ICANN’s mandate of promoting competition set forth in the ICANN
Bylaws. Therefore it allows registrars (and their affiliates) to be
Registry Operators provided they agree to not distribute names within a
TLD for which they or their affiliates serve as the Registry Operator. 
The JN2 contains definitions of affiliation which includes both
ownership (> 15%) and control (direct or indirect) and allows exceptions
for single registrant TLDs, community TLDs and Orphan TLDs.  For the
first 18 months, restrictions apply towards back-end registry service
providers (RSPs) that control policies, pricing or selection of
registrars  and resellers affiliated with the Registry Operator or RSP. 
After such time, they may petition ICANN for a relaxation of those
restrictions depending on a number of factors.
