Re: [soac-newgtldapsup-wg] On the v6 requirement

This is good news. Thanks, Eric.

So If I get this straight -- one of the DAG changes we can suggest (for
suitable applicants) is a waiver from the contractual requirement of
operating in "post-exhaustian" mode.

For practical reasons I'm trying to separate out the generic toolkit from
required DAG changes.
