Hi Bruce I wonder if you would have time for a chat by phone next Tuesday (my preference.....)? I'm out of Sydney until Monday evening..... I'd like to explore some feedback from the GNSO Council call this morning about the resource implications of the CCC work and what the options might be? Let me know what time works for you and I'll work around that!

Hello Tim,
Could you provide the source for the conclusions you make below, or are they your own?
Purely my own quick thoughts - none of them need to be accepted in any way :-)
Regarding the latter, at some point .com may be less 20% but if a large portion of other gTLD registrations are only defensive and mostly point to .coms, is that a good sign of competition?
No.
Finally, I'm not sure it is a good idea for the regulator's own criteria and evaluation to be the only measure of the effectiveness of its regulations. So we should consider third party involvement as well.
Agreed. But given we as a community are initiating a project - lets at least have some shared measures of our own. Any independent review may wish to look at other aspects - but we at least need our own measures to manage our own projects.
Regards, Bruce
