"The BC is not in favor of eliminating a swath of ICANN participants
simply because they are ethically bound to not disclose their client
relationships. There are myriad reasons – not the least of which would
be the fact that disclosure of those being represented could invite
even more gaming into the ICANN system. For example, an attorney
representing a new gTLD applicant could be compelled to disclose
his/her relationship with that applicant, inviting a competing
application. That’s just one example."
We are definitely countering this. I will post final version later
today (deadline is today).
