<div>If I've understood the comments on the call today correctly, I think the 
main concern with the proposed language by the RySG was that it seemed to 
suggest that new registries should not be allowed to use proprietary IDs, which 
I don't think was the intent of the RySG or the WG (but please correct me if I 
am wrong). If this assessment is correct, a possible solution could be to add 
one sentence to the language proposed by the RySG (in between brackets and 
bold):</div><div><br></div><div>The WG recommends that all gTLD Registry

model.</div><div><br></div><div>The WG is charged with looking into ways to to 
facilitate transfers and save Registrars the extra step of having to look up 
the proprietary IDs?&nbsp;&nbsp;Ok.&nbsp;&nbsp;Then just require that the IANA

fields not connected to the transfer process are of no consequence to this 
WG.</div><div><br></div><div>If anything, "proprietary IDs" are going to be 
even more commonplace when new gTLDs come to market as the finite pool of 
back-end operators will need unique ways of tracking registration partners for 
the various TLDs under their management.</div><div><br></div><div>Best,

TEXT:&nbsp;&nbsp;Recommendation Charter Question C: the WG recommends that new 
gTLD Registry Operators standardize on IANA IDs and that all Registry Operators 
must publish the Registrar of Record's IANA ID. The WG encourages existing 
Registry Operators that currently use proprietary IDS to consider transitioning 
to the exclusive use of IANA IDs, but notes that there are operational issues 
that may make this very difficult.&nbsp;&nbsp;Thus Registry Operators that 
currently use proprietary IDs can continue to do so, but they must also publish
