....I THINK A GENERAL COMMENT I WOULD MAKE WITH RESPECT TO REFORMING THE GNSO AND I THINK IT IS THE SAME COMMENT AS REFORMING ICANN IS THAT WE EFFECTIVELY HAVE -- AND I WILL USE AIRLINE ANALOGY. WE HAVE THREE FLIGHTS THAT ARE CURRENTLY FLYING IN THE AIR AT THE MOMENT. AND THEY ARE ALL PRETTY IMPORTANT. THEY RELATE TO NEW GTLDS, THEY RELATE TO IDNS AND THEY RELATE TO WHOIS. EACH OF THOSE FLIGHTS ARE CURRENTLY FLYING.
WE ACTUALLY WANT TO LAND THOSE FLIGHTS AT SOME TIME AND WE RECOGNIZE THAT IT IS ALWAYS VERY ENTERTAINING TO START FIDDLING AROUND THE WITH SYSTEMS WHILE THEY ARE IN FLIGHT, BUT LET'S MAKE SURE THAT WE KEEP THE PLANES FLYING AND IN PARTICULAR WE HAVE A CLEAR TIMETABLE FOR LANDING THOSE PLANES AND DON'T END UP WITH THOSE PLANES IN A HOLDING PATTERN AROUND THE AIRPORTS SO WE DO WANT TO LAND THEM...

I am beginning to warm to this guy!
