Re: [atlarge-discuss] Community & Registrar Input on Transfers

[DannyYounger@cs.com]

A Correction:

The Chair of the Transfers TF has just changed her mind:

"I need to provide an update to the TF. Let me give some clarification to 
what happens next. I've had the chance to consult with the NC chair, and he's 
offered some clarification which I've asked him to provide as an email.  
First, after he and I reviewed the schedule and the timelines, we realize 
that an extension on the comments phase simply isn't possible if we meet our 
deadline to get this before the NC this year for a vote. As I stated in the 
Public Session this week, I am committed to completing this. The community 
needs closure; the users need it, the Registrars need it.  Although we will 
not extend the comment period, we will host at least one more open call with 
the registrars specifically, for comment/discussions.  This may/may not take 
place before 11/8, but will be included in the comment process."

If we seek to provide a user proposal on transfers for consideration by the 
Council, we would need to complete the project within one week (a rather 
difficult undertaking).... on the other hand, we could allow ourselves five 
to six weeks to get the job done done (by-passing the Council and 
hand-delivering our proposal directly to the Board at the Annual Meeting on 
December 14-15 in Amsterdam).

It seems pretty clear that Marilyn Cade intends to push through the current 
registrar proposal (even though it is currently opposed by BulkRegister.com, 
Go Daddy Software, Inc., NameScout Corp., Register.com, Inc., VeriSign 
Registrar, Wild West Domains, Inc., and CSL GmbH d/b/a joker.com).  I think 
that we as a group could come up with a better solution that what is 
currently being considered.  

It may be helpful to begin by reviewing the relevant portions of General 
Counsel's Briefing Concerning Implementation of Policies by Registrars and 
Registry Operators posted at
