Please approve the .XXX Registry Agreement

[Stephen Winyard <steve@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear ICANN,

Please approve the Registry Agreement for the dot-xxx top-level domain in the 
form posted on your website.

I believe that the labelling of adult content online is a good and useful step 
forward. For years, parents have struggled with setting up filters and control 
mechanisms to help protect children from viewing pornography and a regulated 
TLD will be welcomed. In many cases, parents are simply unable to keep up with 
their computer-literate kids and have no idea how to install parental internet 
controls or to stop their children getting around them. This becomes more 
prevalent when you read reports that over a third of 10 year old kids have seen 
online porn.

ICM Registry has spent many years trying to make the extension a reality, and 
has given considerable thought into how a self-regulated adult area online 
would work.

The delegated policy making authority, in conjunction with the not-for profit 
IFFOR, is clearly articulated in the posted documents and allows for 
multi-stakeholder input whilst at the same time adhering firmly to its charter.

I urge you to execute the Registry Agreement as soon as possible and so let the 
registration of .XXX names begin.
