Hi, 

I think we have a divided set of opinions on this issue.

To me this seems perfectly ok and something I have expected since www talked about the new gTLD program in the GNSO. 
But there are people I respect who think it is a horror that must be stopped.

But it could be interesting to see whether they think there is an issue they think they need to deal with (well not the full board but the New gTLD committee)
