Norbert,

This for me a is a worrying development. While we disagree, and perhaps 
I was to rash with Curran who has always been pleasant, Curran and 
Conrad do provide inputs that are valuable. Is it possible for you to 
categorise some of the differences as you did previously so that we do 
not loose these important interactions on the list.

At times I share Conrads sentiments - as I am sure also Parminder would: 
having to explain and refine his submissions of CIR repeatedly etc, as 
Conrad feels - and this is an important divergence that needs to be 
"cultivated" without taking hostages...

Please feel free (without your coord hat on) to guide me if you feel 
this is inappropriate.

For me there are a number of reasons that stand in the way of 
Parminder-type proposals that may aid categorisation, that I hope you 
can "neutralise":

1. Lack or no technical details
2. Political feasibility
3. Policy targetted at wrong political/policy entity
4. Perversity
5. Jeopardy
6. Futility (often referred to as political realism - or it will not fly)

I say this in the spirit of those who cared to comment on IT4C 
submission of TLDs, who were frank and open, even if we could not agree.

Hope you can ride this wave...
