<html><body><span style="font-family:Arial; color:#000000; font-size:10pt;">I 
agree with Margie that consolidating approval authority with the admin<br>
contact only could have significant consequences.  In effect, we would<br>
be altering the checks and balances built in to the original IRTP in<br>
such a way that the downstream implications are not fully understood.  <br>
<br>
Without the safeguard of registrant approval, the incidence of hijacking<br>
could spike, and registrars would have fewer remedies to help the<br>
registrant recover their hijacked names.<br>
<br>
Since we are discussing it, perhaps we can capture the idea in our<br>
report.  But I think the concerns must also be strongly noted in the<br>
same section.<br>

face="Arial">From the perspective of a corporate registrar, allowing the 
administrative contact to have equal rights to the registrant might be 
problematic. &nbsp;&nbsp;In some cases, the administrative contact might be a 
disgruntled employee that intends to cause harm to its former employer. 
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;For our clients, the company listed as the registrant would 
generally have priority over the admin contact if there is a dispute between 
the two. &nbsp;&nbsp;The issue of whether the registrant/admin has more or the 
same rights should be analyzed more deeply before any such recommendation can 
be given.<o:p></o:p></font></font></div> <div><font size="2" color="navy"

want to keep “registrant email” data for themselves, despite the obvious intent 
of the existing WHOIS contract provisions and policy. &nbsp;This info is not 
part of the contractual WHOIS information, and thus should not be authoritative 
in any potential respect. &nbsp;Therefore we need to consider revising the IRTP 
policy so that this hidden WHOIS information is no longer potentially 
authoritative, as that causes substantial confusion and uncertainty wrt domain 
transactions.<o:p></o:p></font></font></div> <div><font size="2" color="navy"

that there is a group consensus that allowing admin contact to transfer a 
domain that can later be reversed by the registrant is a dangerous policy 
problem that we should fix if possible. There is a great deal of difficulty in 
agreeing on a solution to provide the registrant email address to the gaining 
registrar and there may be a consensus that we cannot find a solution to that 
problem.<o:p></o:p></font></font></div> <div><font size="2" color="#1f497d"

able to recommend any solution to provide gaining registrars with registrant 
email address, we should recommend changing policy to give admin contact 
transfer authority equal to the registrant. We should suggest that a registrant 
not be able to reverse a transfer after it is completed when the transfer was 
authorized by the admin contact. ICANN should continue to require losing 
registrars to notify registrants and give them the opportunity to cancel a 
transfer, but not to reverse one that has been 
completed.<o:p></o:p></font></font></div> <div><font size="2" color="#1f497d"

All,<br> <br> As discussed on our last call, please find below for your review 
draft concluding statements for each issue. Please note that these are merely 
intended to start an online discussion that we will continue on next week’s 
call (9 December). &nbsp;All comments are welcome and encouraged.<br> <br> With 
best regards,<br> <br> Marika<br> <br> ============<br> <br> <b><font 
style="font-weight: bold;">Issue I<br> </font></b>Based on the discussions in 
the Working Group, there appears to be agreement that a policy change is not 
required. &nbsp;Some members suggested this issue could be addressed as part of 
an overall technical modernization of the WHOIS protocol, perhaps through 
updates. There appears to be a slight preference to explore EPP and or future 
adoption of the IRIS protocol in further detail as a possible solution over the 
other options discussed for Issue I. Neither of these options received broad 
agreement, however. &nbsp;However, it should be noted that the Working Group 
will not take a final decision on which solution(s), if any, to recommendations 
to the GNSO Council before a thorough review of the comments received during 
the public comment period and final constituency statements has taken 
place.<br> <br> <b><font style="font-weight: bold;">Issue II<br> 
</font></b>Based on the discussion in the Working Group, there appears to be 
broad some agreement that there is a need for other options for electronic 
authentication. &nbsp;However, opinions in the Working Group differ as to 
whether this should be an issue for GNSO policy making or for market solutions. 
It should be noted that the Working Group will not take a final decision on 
which solution(s), if any, to recommendations to the GNSO Council before a 
thorough review of the comments received during the public comment period and 
final constituency statements has taken place. <br> <br> <b><font 
style="font-weight: bold;">Issue III</font></b> <br> Based on the discussion in 
the Working Group, there appears to be broad agreement that there is no need to 
incorporate provisions for handling partial bulk transfers between registrars 
at this stage. The Working Group believes that these scenarios can be addressed 
either through the existing Bulk Transfer provisions, or through existing 
market solutions. It should be noted that the Working Group will not take a 
final decision on which solution(s), if any, to recommendations to the GNSO 
Council before a thorough review of the comments received during the public 
comment period and final constituency statements has taken place.</font></font>
