Notes from 30 October Call

Thanks to everyone who attended - the feedback was very helpful. For those of 
you who were unable to attend, I have provided a brief summary of the issues 
that we covered.

  1.  Section 1(d) - The majority of those in attendance agreed that "material 
change" should be a defined term in the policy, rather than a footnote. 
Material Change is now a defined term in section 1(d) of the policy.
  2.  Section 2.2(a) - There were some concerns that this clause could affect 
companies who provide expired domain sales.  Accordingly, some members of the 
IRT offered to share this with stakeholders and/or companies who would be 
affected/interested by this.  (For those of you who volunteered or wish to 
volunteer, please do so.) :)
  3.  Section 2.2(c) - The group had a lively discussion about domain name 
disputes, particularly in reference to the URS and other disputes that the 
registrar may have no knowledge of.  Accordingly, the language has been 
modified further to the IRT's suggestion.  The group was also opposed to the 
language, formerly in section 1(c), involving the serverUpdateprohibited EPP 
status.  Specifically, registries could set this status for reasons other than 
a URS proceeding, so those in attendance believed this broadened the original 
intent of the WG and should therefore be removed.  You are welcome to review 
the newly-proposed language in section 2.2(c) and provide feedback.
  4.  Section 2.3 - The group also had a lively discussion around this section. 
 Section 2.3 was written to include optional reasons for COR denial that the WG 
may not have thought of, e.g., fraud, registry-imposed eligibility 
restrictions, et. al.  The majority of the group agreed that this is treading 
closely into policy-making territory, and the IRT is not supposed to create 
policy.  The IRT also noted that many of the circumstances listed in the former 
section 2.3 can be resolved via other consensus policies or via registration 
agreements.  By way of example, fraud could be a breach of a registration 
agreement, allowing the registrar to cancel the registration agreement through 
a mechanism other than this policy.  For the members that were present during 
the call, please feel free to elaborate if I did not accurately summarize your 
concerns. :)  I have deleted that entire section to reflect the consensus of 
those one the call.
As always, please feel free to reach out to me with any questions or feedback. 
Thank you!

Kind regards,
