Sadly, I figured that.

Why only PDF?

I've submitted numerous comments over the years to ICANN in plain text with no problems.

Anyways, in my view, the biggest reason .XXX is spinning its wheels are the following issues that at the global level are challenging to say the least:

* What defines an adult? Age 16, 18, 21, etc? And/or some other attributes?

* What is considered sexually explicit for children?

* Who decides what content belongs in .XXX?

* Will .XXX be legally required? And/or required by contract? Ie. will credit card processors, such as CCBill, require adult sites to operate completely within .XXX?

* Does .XXX, in essence, become a government endorsement of sexually explicit content? This is a biggie with many citizen / religious groups; many of them are against .XXX too.

Does the FSC letter mention, or at least, allude to, these issues? If not, it should, because those above points are the main reasons .XXX has remained bogged down and going nowhere.
