RE: [gnso-iocrc-dt] Latest IOC/RCRC Recommendations Draft

["Neuman, Jeff" <Jeff.Neuman@xxxxxxxxxx>]

All,


Thanks for your hard work on this yesterday and for putting this out.  This 
comment is being provided not as the chair, but as an individual on a comment 
in the draft which states:



Need to confirm if the registration of the 2nd level domains is allowed by the 
IOC/RCRC organizations at their discretion. [Jim B]

It would seem to me that allowing the registration of any 2nd levels (even by 
the organizations themselves) would contradict the entire premise of our 
proposal; namely, that we are recommending a moratorium (I know we do not use 
this word) and not a standard reservation of the names while we work on the 
pdp.  It is precisely why we want this to go to a pdp to not only figure out 
the rationale for having protections in place for these names, but also to 
figure out how exceptions (if any) are worked out.  It may well be after the 
pdp that we have an exception process that allows these organizations to get 
the names (as well as others that may have rights), but that should be figured 
out in the pdp and not pre-judged.

My recommendation is that this comment be taken out of the current draft as it 
was not part of the original consensus call which groups have been soliciting 
comments on.

But, putting my chair hat back on, if this is something that the group does 
want, then of course we can leave it in.

Thanks.
