I think the paper is correct in pointing out that contracted parties do need some sort of grouping, but it forgets that registrants (of all types) are a highly important component of this. Personally, I would like to see a registrants' advisory board made up of those subsets of all constituencies (business, noncomm, at-large) that has an interest in protecting registrant's rights. Since these groups are already part of official constituencies I see this as an advsory board that would work with those constituency groups to help forumlate registrant-friendly policy.
For the same reasons, I don't see identification of registrants as a new separate constituency to be a good idea. - Evan
