  I am aware that it is not a black and whit issue.  Your point that
IAHC is trying to portray it as a black and white issue, I am not 
sure that I agree with.  My point is to make the argument a bit
simpeler from on point of view.  I understand that for some 
TLDs it is approiate that they be sharable.  I do not argue that.
My argument is that that decision should be left up to the
holders of those TLDs, under advisement, but not in a dictatorial
manner, as to weather they wish to share them in some fassion.

  Is this a bit clearer?  I hope so.  My and my companies 
concern is that there will only be a core group that will
make these determinations.  Hence I feel obligated that
I (WE) express our point of view and let everyone whom
wishes to evaluate that point of view as they choose.

  I have offered some adjuncts of compromise here and
possible I should put forth my own perposal.  I have
not done this due to several others have made some good
suggestions to the DEC 19th perposal already, and it looks
as though we are comming to a cnosensus.  Though I think
we need to be more difinitive as to our objections and why.
In addition make a counter argument or partial perposal
to certain aspects of what has been perposed.
