Existing Registries (PDP Feb 06) has completed its draft Final Report and seeks public comments on the draft recommendations.

The draft recommendations are found in the Recommendation Summary of the draft Report which is posted at http://gnso.icann.org/issues/gtld-policies/gnso-pdp-feb06-tfr-08mar07.htm. In addition, a comparison chart of all of ICANN's registry contracts can be found at http://gnso.icann.org/drafts/draft-comparison-of-icann-registry-agreements-20061009.htm. The two documents should be read together for comprehensive information about the policy development process.

The original Task Force Terms of Reference can be found at http://gnso.icann.org/issues/gtld-policies/tor-pdp-28feb06.html.

The full record of the Task Force's work can be found at http://gnso.icann.org/issues/gtld-policies/.

Public comments on the proposed recommendations will be used to further inform the Task Force before it sends its final Report to the GNSO Council for consideration.
