RE: [soac-mapo] replacement for 2.2 and 2.4 : next try following Mary's and Richard's comments

[Milton L Mueller <mueller@xxxxxxx>]

I have heard several govt representatives express their desire to raise TLD 
objections based on their local laws or "public interest" notions. Not on this 
list, however. But if no one supports that and it's openly excluded as an 
option, then that's great.

That being said, I have no objection to national govts using the community 
objection process, on the same terms and conditions as any other community. 
What is unclear from Bertrand's note, is whether this is a new procedure 
specifically tailored to allow a new channel of objections, or not. If that 
could be clarified it would be good.

Milton,

I have not heard anyone advocating "giving governments the right to impose 
their national law on the rest of the world" and I question whether allowing a 
"community objection based on national law" does that, assuming of course that 
there are objective criteria for evaluating objections that do not allow that.

Bertrand,
The idea of giving governments the right to impose their national law on the 
rest of the world was soundly rejected by the consensus process. It doesn't 
change that by calling it a "community objection" instead of a "national law" 
objection. I hope we don't have to deal with a lot of other procedural tricks 
of this sort as we enter the end game.

Any such amended recommendations will have to go through another polling 
process of course

Should individual governments have objections based on contradiction with 
specific national laws, such objections should be submitted through the 
Community Objections  procedure.
