Motion 1.
Proposed Motion on Post-Expiration Domain Name Recovery
Motion by: Avri Doria
Seconded by: Chuck Gomes
Whereas on 05 December 2008, the GNSO received an Issues Report on
Post-Expiration Domain Name Recovery (PEDNR);
http://gnso.icann.org/issues/post-expiration-recovery/report-05dec08.pdf
Whereas on 29 January 2009 the GNSO Council decided to form a Drafting Team
(DT) to consider the form of policy development action in regard to PEDNR;
Whereas a DT has formed and its members have discussed and reviewed the issues
documented in the Issues Report;
Whereas the DT has concluded that although some further information gathering
may be needed, it should be done under the auspices of a PDP;
Whereas staff has suggested and the DT concurs that the issue of registrar
transfer during the RGP might be better handled during the IRTP Part C PDP.
The GNSO Council RESOLVES
to initiate a Policy Development Process (PDP) to address the issues identified
in the Post-Expiration Domain Name Recovery Issues Report. The charter of the
Task Force or Working Group charged with carrying out this PDP should include a
mandate to consider both Consensus Policy recommendations as well as
recommendations regarding best practices, ICANN compliance obligations and
possible RAA changes, all associated with staff recommendations in the Issues
Report section 4.2.
Specifically, consideration of the following questions:
. Whether adequate opportunity exists for registrants to redeem their expired
domain names;
. Whether expiration-related provisions in typical registration agreements are
clear and conspicuous enough;
. Whether adequate notice exists to alert registrants of upcoming expirations;
. Whether additional measures need to be implemented to indicate that once a
domain name enters the Auto-Renew Grace Period, it has expired (e.g., hold
status, a notice on the site with a link to information on how to renew, or
other options to be determined).
. Whether to allow the transfer of a domain name during the RGP.
The GNSO Council further resolves that the issue of logistics of possible
registrar transfer during the RGP shall be incorporated into the charter of the
IRTP Part C charter.
Friendly amendment proposed by Tim Ruiz to replace the first paragraph of the
'RESOLVE' section to the following:
"to initiate a Policy Development Process (PDP) to address the issues
identified in the Post-Expiration Domain Name Recovery Issues Report.
The charter for this PDP should instruct the Working Group: (i) that it
should consider recommendations for best practices as well as or instead
of recommendations for Consensus Policy; (ii) that to inform its work it
should pursue the availability of further information from ICANN
compliance staff to understand how current RAA provisions and consensus
policies regarding deletion, auto-renewal, and recovery of domain names
during the RGP are enforced; and (iii) that it should specifically
consider the following questions:"
Avri Doria sent an email to the Post-Expiration Domain Name Recovery drafting
team, who drafted the motion, asking whether the amendment could be accepted:

Motion 2.
Motion on Producing Synthesis of Requirements for Whois Service Tools
Made by: Avri Doria
Seconded by: Chuck Gomes
Whereas there have been discussions for several years on the adequacy of the
current set of Whois tools to provide the necessary functions to support
existing and proposed Whois service policy requirements,
and, there have been questions as to the adequacy of these tools for use in an
IDN environment,
and, that there have been extensive discussions about the requirements of the
Whois service with respect to Registry and Registrar operations,
and, new architectures and tools have been developed and suggested by the
technical community,
Resolved,
The GNSO Council requests that Policy Staff, with the assistance of technical
staff as required, collect and organize a comprehensive set of requirements for
the Whois service policy tools. These requirements should reflect not only the
known deficiencies in the current service but should include any possible
requirements that may be needed to support various policy initiatives such as
tiered services and privacy protection.
The synthesis of requirements should be done in consultation with the SSAC,
ALAC, GAC and the ccNSO and (a strawman proposal should be prepared for these
consultation. The Staff is asked to come back with an estimate of when this
would be possible.) should be ready for community discussion in time for the
Sydney meeting.
