Mike, congratulations on getting this PDP through with excellent cooperation in the users house. You say that: "Notably, the entire Contracted Party House voted against a PDP ... In our house, the vote was 11-2 in favor." Importantly I believe this is the first vote where the new bi-cameral structure exposes not "a GNSO that can not make up its mind" (old perception) but a GNSO that contains a sub-set of suppliers with vested interests who are happy to use their vote against a public interest. This clear demonstration may be useful to air with Board members over informal discussions. Philip
