The positions and comments will be > put up at CIRA's web site. > > The Board is expected to discuss the submissions and try to come up with a > policy on resellers at its meeting on January 29, 2002. > > It is my conviction that the Board will not be able to do this unless the > registrars theselves have already worked out the solution, or most of it, > before that time.
