RE: [gnso-dt-wg] domain tasting follow up

[Liz Gasster <liz.gasster@xxxxxxxxx>]

We have also not received updated statements yet from the ISPs or from the 
registrars.  Unless the Council decides otherwise, I am still planning to 
prepare a final report by Friday as directed, so it would be difficult to meet 
that deadline and incorporate NCUC comments.

We can discuss this further tomorrow, but from a staff perspective, if the 
Council agreed to extend the deadline until this Friday for constituency 
statements, I could complete final report by Tuesday the 8th.  I know there is 
urgency to meet the deadlines set forth in the earlier motion, but I think we 
could accommodate Robin's request in parallel with your plan to "finalize" the 
motion by the 10th (1 week before the next Council meeting).

Thanks, Liz

NCUC would like to submit an updated statement in light of the motion, so we'd 
like to request an extension in which to file it until Friday if possible.

Thanks,
Robin

All,

Attached is the ALAC's updated constituency statement on domain tasting.  I 
note Chuck's earlier update that the registry constituency statement will be 
forthcoming.  That's what I am aware of so far.  Could others provide updates 
for the team?

Is there consensus for a call on Tuesday at usual time (1:00 Pacific time)? 
Glen and I can set that up.

Thanks, Liz

Olof and/or Liz (not sure who is handling this),

Following is the update to the ALAC "Constituency" Statement on Domain Tasting.

Alan
==========================================


The At Large Advisory Committee has consulted with its constituent
bodies regarding the proposed GNSO Council motion on Domain Tasting.

Some constituents would have preferred to see a more aggressive
recommendation - specifically to eliminate the Add Grace Period
entirely. However, the ALAC recognizes that compared to some
alternative suggested ways of addressing domain tasting (such as
using a 90% threshold instead of 10%, a more modest "restocking fee",
more studies, or simply letting the domain name market evolve without
intervention), the proposed action is relatively aggressive.

Given that the proposed motion includes the requirement to monitor
the implementation and effectiveness of the proposed limitations on
the AGP, the ALAC unanimously supports the proposed motion.
