RE: [gnso-pro-wg] Report - Ultimate Question

["Smith, Kelly W" <kelly.w.smith@xxxxxxxxx>]

I think the following is more on point:
 
The WG agreed that additional protections for the legal rights of others
during the domain name registration process for new TLDs (beyond the
current registration agreement and UDRP policy) should be offered, but
the WG was unable to reach consensus on whether to recommend a "best
practices" approach to providing such protections per se.  However, the
WG agreed to recommend to Council certain principles to guide the
adoption of such additional protections.

How about this?  Thanks.  Jon

 

The WG agreed to recommend to Council an approach to providing
additional protections beyond the current registration agreement and
UDRP policy for the legal rights of others during the domain name
registration process for new TLDs, but the WG has not agreed on the
appropriate use of the term "best practices" and has made little
progress to date on the details of such additional protections.

All,

 

The report needs to state whether we "determine(d) whether to recommend
to Council a best practices approach to providing any additional
protections beyond the current registration agreement and UDRP policy
for the legal rights of others during the domain name registration
process . . . ."

 

In light of (a) our discussions about best practice vs. model vs.
guideline; and (b) the work we did not complete, the candid answer to
this seems to be:

 

The WG agreed to recommend to Council a best practices approach to
providing any additional protections beyond the current registration
agreement and UDRP policy for the legal rights of others during the
domain name registration process, but the WG does not want to use the
term best practices and the WG hasn't made much progress on the details
of best practices, models, guidelines or whatever they're called.

 

Alternative statements are encouraged.    Thanks.

 

Kristina

All, 

I've realized that I will not have time to draft the section of the
report that deals with outstanding issues.  If you believe that there
needs to be a textual description - other than the proposals chart,
please volunteer to do so.
