Dear Marilyn,

In addition to the reasons expressed by others
that this is outside the scope of ICANN's purposely
narrow technical authority, the history of the policy
making proceedings in this area made it plain that the
for-profit vs. not-for-profit criterion was an
impermissible constraint on businesses providing
services in this sector.

Consider for a moment if such a requirement were
imposed on interexchange carriers because they were
somehow essential or denominated by some other contrived
means.
