Council members, Thank you Chuck for your helpful suggestion. Allow me to explain a little further the problem as we see it. Suppose we do choose to vote recommendation by recommendation. Rec 1 is - do you support new TLDs. Well the answer to that recommendation in isolation is no. The BC supports new TLDs subject to such things as financial and technical standards, safeguards to avoid criminal abuse, and safeguards for consumer protection. That was the entire essence of our work. I thought that we al support these goals. The recommendations were not written in isolation but listed for clarity for the benefit of those who will implement. If this work is unfinished, we should continue as the committee to work. If this work is finished, we should vote as Council on the report presented. Philip
