Would you be so kind as to provide the documentation (URLs are fine) to 
back your claim. I've never seen, nor heard, of any published data which 
independently reviews, or analyzes the projected consequences, of inserting 
this particular gTLD into the root.

I'm sure the rest of WG-C/DNSO would like to evaluate this claim as well.

Thanks,
