All,
 
Jon, thanks for doing this.  I had to attend to a client matter.
(gasp.)
 
Is "but was unable to reach consensus on whether to recommend a "best
practices" approach to providing such protections" correct?  I had
understood that the WG agreed that there needed to be some standard set
of [insert noun here], but could not agree that the phrase "best
practices" should actually be used.

        Here's my attempt to amalgamate the various posts on this issue.
I tried to take some from posts by Kelly, Mike & Avri.  I avoided
specifics about the questionnaire that Mike included.  Thanks.  Jon

         

        The WG discussed various approaches 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 was unable to reach consensus on whether to
recommend a "best practices" approach to providing such protections.
The WG was able to develop a list of draft principles that various WG
members believe should be considered as policy statements for TLD
operators to implement, but has yet to fully engage in discussion of
that list of draft principles.

        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.

        Subject: FW: [gnso-pro-wg] Report - Ultimate Question

         

        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

        Subject: [gnso-pro-wg] Report - Summary of Incomplete Areas

        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. 

        Kristina
