To be clear - we are not talking about any specific service here with any pre-conceived set of requirements.
Indeed. But I did think there was a risk that wording could be (mis)interpreted to suggest that we are - and then used to that effect when discussing what that future Directory Service might look like.
We are talking about a new service that is established as a result of a policy development process in the GNSO. If it helps you could add the text:
"any future gTLD DIrectory Service, established via ICANN's bottom up policy development process".
I think that would help. The only point that I'm making is that we aren't trying to pre-empt that process or use this insertion into the Bylaws to direct certain outcomes from it. On that, I think we're all agreed; it's just a matter of being clear in the language we choose. -- Malcolm Hutty | tel: +44 20 7645 3523 Head of Public Affairs | Read the LINX Public Affairs blog London Internet Exchange | http://publicaffairs.linx.net/ London Internet Exchange Ltd 21-27 St Thomas Street, London SE1 9RY Company Registered in England No. 3137929 Trinity Court, Trinity Street, Peterborough PE1 1DA
