The argument to that is that there is a fundamental conflict of interest for
the ccTLDSO to represent both themselves and their client. If the ccTLDs
represent 244 countries and each has 1 vote on an issue, how many votes do
registrants have? The balance of power has to be created by a separate SO
for registrants, so that the ccTLDSO vote and the RegsitrantSO is
commensurate, one vote each. I would like to hear from the ccTLDs on this
issue.
