>>Hi every one...  I did raise this issue to the At-Large list in my email
>>dated 05/12/07 (my time zone so 04/12/07 for the rest of you)  see my point
>>4. In the attached...

>>And I do (believe me) recognise that we have neither the time, or the need,

>>But...

>>Regarding this Draft Advisory, it appears to me that there is an

>>GNSO, to make clear that we both appreciate and support this effort to
>>better inform and aid in the understanding of the intention and meaning of
>>this advisory to both the registrar and registrant community... Or words to
>>that effect...  And further that to complement the directive regarding the
>>registrar requirement to make available to their customers information on
>>the transfer process (note here the clearly and accessible requirement) ALAC
>>and the At-Large Community will investigate best ways and opportunities  to
>>promote the ICANN page at
>>http://www.icann.org/transfers/text.htm#TransferDomain   and the effective
>>use of the dedicated email address transfer-questions@xxxxxxxxx  for queries
>>from the public regarding transfer of domain names. 
>>
>> 
>>
>>If we agree to that, then I would further propose *for future discussion*
>>that ALAC may (if the concept is supported by the At-Large Community), in

>>Supplier of Registrar Code of Practice (as a self regulatory model),
>>similar to that developed in some ccTLDs  (e.g.  the auDA one see Code
