RE: [gnso-pednr-dt] PEDNR: A proposed path forward
PEDNR Team, I agree too that the Rr proposal is a great start. Thank you for providing us with this first step for bringing consistency and more predictability to the expiration process. Similar to Mikey, there a few additional items I would like to see before we paint the horizon and draw this WG to a close. For example, the documentation of this spaghetti process that can facilitate the education that both sides agree needs to be created to enhance Registrant knowledge and expectation. Often, my white board is my only outlet to get an issue off my brain so I can sleep better at night. Attached is a whiteboard drawing of my take on the possible "future state" of the process. I wanted to share this with the group before I spent any time on building this in Visio. Please forgive my pathetic whiteboard penmanship and I recommend using zoom to decipher the labels. As this is kind of a mess, I will be happy to walk through the diagram on our call to assist peeps in understanding my logic. I suspect some of my logic is wrong, and I desire assistance from everyone to make it right. Whether we use something like this or not, it will be a great aid to ensure I understand the impacts and consequence of any policy changes we may consider here. That is all for now. Thanks again and see you on the call today!

Bladel Cc: PEDNR Subject: Re: [gnso-pednr-dt] PEDNR: A proposed path forward hi all, i like this a lot, lots to talk about, wrangle over, etc. but a great first step. hats off to you folks. here are things i like; -- consistent behavior immediately after expiry -- registrants get to go to the front of the line and have that position protected for a period of time -- education (presumably made simpler by virtue of that consistent process after expiry) if i were climbing a mountain, i'd say that this is a good place to drive that first piton in. there are a few things that i'd like to add to the pile (and i'd like to haggle over the length of time), but i'll leave that for another day. thanks, mikey On Nov 1, 2010, at 2:12 PM, James M.
