[council] cross-TLD registration scam and domain kiting

[Stéphane Van Gelder <stephane.vangelder@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Leslie,

During its Dec 15, 2011 teleconference, the GNSO Council discussed the issue 
referenced above.

The Council approved that discussion continue on the topic of cross-TLD 
registration scam and domain kiting following the SSAC's response 
(http://gnso.icann.org/correspondence/gnso-council-chair-to-faltstrom-10oct11-en.pdf)
 with the ccNSO to discuss whether there are any steps that could be taken or 
considered jointly.

The GNSO Council and the ccNSO Council had some initial discussions on this 
topic at its meeting in Dakar and as this is an issue that also affects ccTLDs 
there might be common approaches to be explored. As noted, such approaches 
might involve improved communication / education in relation to this issue as 
it is not clear at this stage that this issue could be addressed through policy 
development.

I am therefore contacting you, as Chair of the ccNSO, to enquire whether there 
might be some interest in having a joint discussion on this matter.

Kind regards,
