This is good news! Thank you, Wendy.
It _sounds_ good, but it's far too indirect for my understanding. The relevant quote regarding tasting is the Board resolution to: "encourage ICANN's budgetary process to include fees for all domains added, including domains added during the AGP". Does this mean the elimination of the waiver? In theory or in practice? I'm truly doing my best to understand ICANN culture. Still, Board directives to encourage things to happen, rather than actually _do_ things, appear to the unschooled as an invitation for exceptions, delays, or outright refusal to implement. To the untrained eye, this resolution is good news only if accompanied by an optimistic interpretation. Or... is this simply a welcome first step down a long and landmine-laden road? - Evan
