RE: [council] Final version of RAA amendment/motion
The latest version of the language is preferred by the BC, as the first
version could be read as limiting wrt topics of next discussion. I believe
our collective intent was to open discussion on any topic within the RAA,
not just topics that are subject of current proposed amendments, right?

Thought I should point out that the only change from the
version that
was circulated Sunday afternoon is in the last paragraph of
the resolve.
The Sunday afternoon version read:
Within 30 days of Board approval of the set of amendments,
the GNSO
Council will form a Drafting Team to discuss the amendments
further and
identify those that the community believes could be further
revised
through PDP processes or through additional changes to the
RAA that may
not fall within scope of a formal PDP process. The Drafting
Team should
endeavor to provide its advice to the Council and ICANN
staff no later
then July 31, 2009.
It has been changed to:

The attached, also copied below, is the final version of the
motion many
of us have worked on. It reflects all the changes that we've
discussed.
Not completely sure of the best way to frame it for voting,
but would
like to suggest that we consider it the only motion on this
subject that
we vote on tomorrow.

----------------
Whereas, the Registrar Accreditation Agreement (RAA) has not
been
amended since May 2001, and ICANN has undertaken a lengthy
consultative
process related to amending the RAA, including several
public comment
periods and consultations;
Whereas, the proposed changes to the RAA include important
compliance
and enforcement tools for ICANN; The Council wishes to
approve the set
of proposed amendments as quickly as possible so that the
ICANN Board
may review them, and if approved then implement them as
quickly as
possible; and
Whereas,
The Council would like to proceed on the drafting of a
charter
identifying registrant rights that registrars would be
obliged to link
to, as contemplated in the set of amendments;
The Council would like a specific process and timeline to
move forward
with additional potential amendments to the RAA; and
The Registrar Constituency is supportive of these efforts
and is willing
to participate on a good faith basis on anticipated next
steps.
Resolved:
The GNSO Council supports the RAA amendments as documented
in
http://gnso.icann.org/drafts/current-list-proposed-raa-amendments-16dec08.pd
f
<http://gnso.icann.org/drafts/current-list-proposed-raa-amendments-16dec08.p
df>
and recommends to the Board that they be adopted at its
meeting of March
6, 2009;
Within 30 days of Board approval of the set of amendments,
representatives from the GNSO community and the ALAC shall
be identified
to participate in drafting a registrant rights charter, as
contemplated
by the amendments and the current GNSO Council discussions,
with support
from ICANN staff. A draft charter shall be completed no
later then July
31; and
Within 30 days of Board approval of the set of amendments,
the GNSO
Council will form a Drafting Team to discuss further
amendments to the
RAA.
The Drafting Team should endeavor to provide its advice to
the Council
and
ICANN staff no later then July 31, 2009.
