Rick,

I posted the compromise position implemented in the draft twice (once at
your specific request [1], [2]), and you didn't object to it until now.
Comments from other folks on the provreg list supported the change.  As-is,
what's in the draft now allows server operators (not just VeriSign) to set
their own policies -- I strongly believe that's the most reasonable
approach.

Plus, I conferred with the VeriSign folks who attended the meeting you
referred to.  Per them, the significant ask was to be able to see domain
details in the context of ransfers.  The updated document allows a client to
see full domain details in that context without exception.
