Re: [gnso-igo-ingo] Proposed Agenda: IGO-INGO Meeting for 13 FEB 2013

[Avri Doria <avri@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I have one comment about the agenda.

As I understand it, the issue of Special Protections is on the GNSO agenda this 
week.  This is the last GNSO meeting before the Board's deadline for a response 
on these protections.

Does this WG have any input for the GNSO.  

I think we should ask the Board's indulgence for us to complete the work and 
request that they not make yet another preemptory decision on further 
protections.  While any applicants are still striving to get into the root 
ASAP, it si obvious that it is not yet the last minute and the Board has time.  
the Board does not need to make any emergency decisions about reserved names 
until just before it decides to approve a new gTLD.  And it is not on the 
precipice of such a decision.

I recommend we ask them not to create any further expectations of entitlement 
as they did for RCRC and IOC.  I recommend we ask them to give the policy 
process the time it needs to do the work.  If they need an emergency provision 
before approving the first new gTLD so be it.  But it is not yet that time.

This recommendation is consistent with NCSG positions on the Rule of PDP, the 
issue of the Board's tendency to go outside of the PDP based on outside 
pressures and out position on the creation of new reserved name policy 
privilege.
