Apologies to this DT and especially Stéphane for the late changes and
comments.

 

I would like to add that we make a change to Objective #2  to include
previous contracts. As of now it just reads current. 

 

We need to remember that many of the previous Registry contracts allowed for
Cross Ownership and the ability to sell their own TLD through an
owned/affiliated Registrar. This allowed the then fledgling Registries a
distribution channel and a chance to sell their new TLD.

 

As I mentioned in my previous email it is very difficult to predict the
future, but we can analyze previous events and contracts and help us use
that experience to guide our decisions going forward.

 

Long way of saying , lets include previous contracts

 

Thanks

 

Jeff

 

 

Objective 2: To review current ICANN gTLD registry contracts and policies to
identify the current restrictions and practices concerning
registry-registrar separation and equal access in place.

Hello all,

 

Thanks to those who made further comments on our draft charter since I sent
it to the list last Friday.

 

As it is the end of the working day here in France, I would like to propose
a final charter following those comments. Please feel free to request
further amendments until COB in the US today, as we had planned. I'm just
trying to keep momentum on this.

 

I have included Milton's suggested edits in the VI and CO definitions. I
have not taken out the reference to existing gTLDs in the preamble as this
is clearly referenced in the motion and there seems to be a majority of the
group that would like to see it included.

 

I would also like to let the group know that our work was discussed in
today's Council leaders call (the meeting the GNSO chairs and vice chairs
have with Staff before every Council meeting to prepare). I enquired as to
the possibility of having the Council vote on the charter on-line before the
next full Council meeting (scheduled for March in Nairobi) so as not to
waste any time. This is possible, so long as DT members feel confident they
have had enough time to consult with their respective groups. So we'll see
how that goes once we've agreed on our charter but it would be nice,
considering the short amount of time the motion leaves for this work to be
done, to get as far ahead as possible.

 

Thanks,

 

Stéphane
