I note that you spoke in this email to the TF, as "I". IF you are posting on behalf of the constituency on this topic, it would be helpful for you to specify when it is your personal opinion and wnen it is that of the Constituency. 

That is helpful to the TF considerations, and the documentation of submissions to the TF.   Thanks.

In any case, I do not believe that your postings will be accepted by the Transfer list... would you like me to forward them for you? While I am happy to do that, really, your two representatives on the TF should be providing that service to your constituency, as is the case with all constituencies and the GA.

I do not agree with your assumption that ICANN is required to "consult
before making decisions." It is only required to consult with the DNSO on
certain "policy-related matters."  Price does not fit into that category. 

If there is any kind of requirement for ICANN to seek outside input on a
registry service (which I do not believe there is), it should be via experts
in the field and not a policy-making body.

Thanks for the clarification, Jeff

But 

* since what the TF is doing is making recommendations to the board (you
will note the use of the word *recommendation* or *recommend*
throughout) and the use of the conditional (if ICANN does not follow the
recommendations, then we recommend the alternative) and
* since you agree that registries are required to seek approval from
ICANN, and
* since ICANN has the mandate to consult before making decisions

Can you explain to me why you consider the process of ICANN bia the DNSO
asking the for TF recommendations inappropriate? Its not as if the TF
has any power.  We are merely making recommendations.
