I don't think there will be any 60 day wait

It seems clear that if nothing surprising happens, the question of actually
implementing any hold period for new domains will not be decided by the IAHC,
but will be left to the CORE to handle in 1998.
Given the strong disagreement with this policy that we've seen from those
who have expressed interest in being registrars, and thus CORE members,
I just can't imagine it will ever happen.
