[gnso-ff-pdp-may08] Proposed text for section 5.4.

[Marika Konings <marika.konings@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear All,

The proposed language for section 5.4. is as follows:

4) No registrar has been prosecuted for facilitating criminal activities
related to fast flux domains, but there have been reports linking one
ICANN-accredited registrar (ESTDomains, which has since been de-accredited)
to a large number of fraudulent domains including fast flux domains (see
e.g. http://voices.washingtonpost.com/securityfix/2008/09/estdomains.html).
The recent de-peering of Intercage and McColo, hosting companies that both
hosted a large amount of highly undesirable and criminal content and a large
number of domains registered by ESTDomains, reportedly resulted in dramatic
reduction of malicious activity across the entire Internet, see
http://voices.washingtonpost.com/securityfix/2008/11/spam_volumes_drop_by_23
_after.html and http://www.norman.com/Virus/Security_Information/54482/.

Please feel free to share your comments / suggestions to the list. If no 
further comments / edits are received by tomorrow, I'll incorporate it into the 
report for final review by the Working Group.

With best regards,

Marika

Dear All,

 As discussed on our last conference call, please find attached for your review 
the proposed text for the public comment forum and announcement. Please share 
your comments / suggestions on the mailing list.

 I hope to post the final version of the initial report shortly; I'm still 
working with ICANN legal counsel to come up with acceptable language for 
section 5.4.

 With best regards,

 Marika
