[gnso-vi-feb10] Executive Summary edit

["Kathy Kleiman" <kKleiman@xxxxxxx>]

Mikey, 

Apologies if this has already been mentioned, but isn't there a bit more to the 
exceptions process that could be pointed out in the Executive Summary? Namely, 
that in the Exceptions piece written by Tim/drafting team there is support not 
just for an exceptions procedure [narrowly tailored], but specifically a focus 
on the nature of the exceptions to be included.  

 

In the interest of time, let me crib off directly off the Exceptions documents, 
and the questions in the survey, and offer a short addition to the text: 

ð  [Executive Summary] Another principle that is moving toward a [consensus] of 
the Working Group support is the principle that in the event ICANN adopts a 
requirement of strict separation between registrars and registries, an 
exceptions procedure should be incorporated into the New GTLD Program [start 
addition] based on certain public interest needs where those needs would not 
otherwise be addressed, possibly to included "community" TLDs and "orphaned" 
TLDs. [end addition]

 

There was wide support for this, even greater than other exceptions already 
noted in the paper.
