John - 

One question -  does this proposal restrict a Registrar  from participating in 
the gTLD round as an applicant? 


Thanks

Jeff

VI WG Colleagues:

Here is a very high level proposal that is coming out of our subgroup 
conversations (not every member of the subgroup supports)

We are looking for a catchy name -- any ideas?  (nothing offensive Milton)


New Proposal

**15% restriction going both ways, including resellers and Registry Service 
Providers (Back-end technical service providers) regardless of TLD -- taken 
from RACK

**Exception for Single Registrant Single User for corporate use only -- (sub 
group believed that exception was not necessary as registry schedule of 
reserved names already provides for this, but good to have in contract for 
clarity) -- mostly taken from JN2

**Exception for back-end (RSP) IF a) RSP doesn't control registry or its 
policy, pricing and registrar selection; b) there is structural separation 
between RSP function and affiliated registrar function; AND c) RSP has direct 
contract with ICANN requiring data security/confidentiality/structural 
separation with graduated sanctions including de-accreditation for any 
violations -- new idea

**Use of registrars required; registry may select based on objective criteria; 
Non Discrimination & Equal Access for registrars selected -- taken from JN2

**Group continues work on Single Registrant Multiple User and Community/Orphan 
exceptions -- not necessary to be in place at time of final AG


Looking forward to discussing on Thursday.

Thanks!

Jon
