Good morning:
Regarding the following public comment question, I would like to know
what EURALO and ALAC's final position was?
Public Comment: Proposed ICANN Process for Handling Requests for
Removal of Cross-Ownership Restrictions for Existing gTLDs
Existing registry operators assert that they need their current
restrictions on cross-ownership to be removed in order to be able to
compete on a level-playing field with registrars that are planning to
apply to operate new gTLDs. Commencing a public comment period on the
process at this time is intended to solicit community input so the
Board may consider the process on 20 June 2011 along with the new gTLD
Applicant Guidebook.

I do not agree with the removal of cross-ownership restrictions as
proposed, for the reasons which I set out in some detail in my
comments last August:

Before making further public comments, I would be grateful for some
feedback from At Large and the Staff as to how we got from there to
here.
Regards,
CW
