Re: [council] Stockholm NC agenda

["Milton Mueller" <Mueller@syr.edu>]

I see a question mark behind item 4 and I'd like to further
question the need for that. It seems to me that addition of 
.info and .biz is well out of the hands of the DNSO at this
point. Is there some policy issue that remains that justifies
its occupation of such a substantial chunk of the agenda?

I am not interested in sitting through a marketing presentation
for any TLD.

Second, I insist that agenda item 3 be labeled properly. The
current title "authoritative vs.  experimental" betrays a 
certain lack of understanding of what is at issue. If we were
simply dealing with "experiments" none of the policy issues
raised would be significant at all. 

Please title it properly, as suggested some time ago: 

"Multiple DNS roots: technical, economic and policy problems."
