	The topic has certainly come up.  I don't know what is reasonable
or possible with respect to their current agreement.  My personal hope is
that we can move to a unified scheme for all iTLDs.  Things take time, so
getting all the details defined and/or in place all at once is, I think, a
non-goal.  Trying to figure out the right DIRECTION to move, however, does
seem like something we can do sooner rather than later.
