On behalf of the SSAC Chairman and SSAC

[Dave Piscitello <dave@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

To: The Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy (IRTP) Part B Policy  Development
Process (PDP) Working Group
From: Stephen Crocker, SSAC Chairman
Subject: IRTP Working Party Initial Report & Expedited transfer reverse
policy (ETRP)

As chair of the Security and Stability Advisory Committee (SSAC), I
congratulate the IRTP Part B PDP WG on its progress towards defining a 
process and specifying standard requirements for the urgent 
return/resolution of a domain registration. We note - and appreciate - 
that the Expedited Transfer Reverse Policy is consistent with the 
principles outlined in section 4.2 of SSAC Report SAC007, Domain
Name Hijacking Report (Section 4.2, Incident Response: Urgent 
Restoration of a Domain, asks registrars to consider a new 
communications channel and corresponding procedures to respond quickly 
to an operational loss of use of a domain name resulting from a transfer 
or DNS configuration error or hijacking.
We look forward to the working party's final report and subsequent 
policy action by the GNSO Council.
Steve Crocker,
Chair, SSAC
