I missed that, although, I though it was covered already. Okay, do we have
any hummms?
I might add that, for the populous enabled, this pretty much precludes a
general Internet user. But then again, this could also help with domain
name sales <grin>. It would suggest that it is ICANN's worry how to enable
general Internet users population. The first two letters of DNSO kind of
says it all.

Not too hot, but I really don't like pushing that expense down to the
registrar/registry. For one thing, it gives you a feed-back loop at the
registrar level with no upward path for the disputing parties. I'd rather
keep the FHP at the DNSO level. If we were to do this then is seems to only
make sense at the registrar level, in order to manage registries. I may be
wrong, but FHPs make most sense if it happens at an over-sight level.
