Hello Liz,

This is the board resolution on an economic study
referenced in today's call:

Resolved (06.___), the President is directed to
commission an independent study by a reputable
economic consulting firm or organization to deliver
findings on economic questions relating to the domain
registration market, such as:

whether the domain registration market is one market
or whether each TLD functions as a separate market, 
whether registrations in different TLDs are
substitutable, what are the effects on consumer and
pricing behavior of the switching costs involved in
moving from one TLD to another, what is the effect of
the market structure and pricing on new TLD entrants,
and whether there are other markets with similar
issues, and if so how are these issues addressed and
by who?
