RE: [gnso-vi-feb10] Single Registrant TLDs in VIWG Brussels report

[<jarkko.ruuska@xxxxxxxxx>]

Richard,

I fully agree with you that most of the things Single Registrant TLDs would 
want to do could be addressed as you described.
At the same time I agree with Tero that this would add unnecessary complexity 
and cost. Either in the form of making more complicated contract with ICANN or 
making the contract with possible registrars. And for me it still doesn't make 
any sense that registry would have to sell names to registrar just buy them 
back with extra cost.

Thanks,

Hi Richard,

the requirement to use a separate registrar. As the number of 2nd level names 
in a typical SRSU case is small, this is also no real business opportunity to 
any registrar. It just adds costs to everybody.

Hi Jarkko,

Further to this post ---  
http://forum.icann.org/lists/gnso-vi-feb10/msg01584.html

What is it that SR Registries might want to do that isn't adequately addressed 
by the current DAG contract?

Richard

Dear all,
It is my observation that recently we haven't really spent much time on the 
Single Registrant TLDs. However, according to previous discussion (and also 
according to the newest proposal matrix)  it is evident that Single Registrant 
TLDs could be vertically integrated and should not need to use registrars. The 
exact conditions to that need a bit of fine-tuning but are essentially 
available in the current proposals.
My understanding is that this is something almost everyone agrees on and should 
therefore be noted in our Brussels report. I would even go a step further and 
suggest that this is something we have a consensus on and it should be part of 
our recommendation to be included in the final Applicant Guidebook.
I also want to point out that Single Registrant TLDs  should be noted as an 
exception regardless whether we reach a consensus about the cross-ownership in 
general.
Thanks,
