Re: [gnso-vi-feb10] Board resolution on Vertical Integration

["Mike O'Connor" <mike@xxxxxxxxxx>]

i just ran out of daylight and need to get on the call.  here's a redraft from 
the last few emails.  Roberto, i was trying to frame your bullet and failed, so 
that one is missing and needs to be added.

revised...

-- Certain new gTLDs likely to be applied for in the first round may be 
unnecessarily impacted by restrictions on cross-ownership or control between 
registrar and registry.
 
-- There is need for a process that would allow applicants to request 
exceptions and have them considered on a case-by-case basis.  Possible 
exceptions include (but are not limited to):
 
-- Single Registrant, Single User TLDs 

-- TLDs that would benefit from relevant local, technical and commercial 
expertise
 
-- There will exist need for enhanced compliance efforts and the need for a 
detailed compliance plan in relation to the new gTLD program in general.
