BC, Thank you to everyone who commented back on the Vertical Integration draft charter. All comments to date are in support of the charter and all support the Objective 5 as proposed by the IPC. [ Objective 5: Using all information that has been collected by ICANN to date, determine the possible effects of potential changes to the current restrictions and/or practices concerning registry-registrar separation and equivalent, non-discriminatory access contained in the options set out in DAGv3 and changes considered by ICANN staff on (a) the retail and wholesale markets for domain names and (b) on consumers of domain names. ] I am notifying the VI DT of the BC position now, as our internal deadline for submission is 15:00 UTC. Thank you again. B Berry A. Cobb Infinity Portals LLC 866.921.8891
