Re: [ga] ICANN opens up Question Box for Mexico City meeting

Additional questions:

1.  RAA amendment:  ability to create new Registered Names suspended if 
Registrar is repeatedly/willfully in fundamental/material breach of its 
obligations at least three times within year.  Why isn’t once sufficient?

2.  RAA:  In the event ICANN establishes a Code of Conduct for ICANN accredited 
registrars, Registrar shall abide by that Code; Will ICANN ever establish a 
registrar code of conduct?

3.  RAA amendment:  “Upon execution of agreement, Registrar shall provide
ICANN with a list of the names of Registrar's directors and officers”.  Will 
such a list ever be made public?

4.  RAA:  “Registrar shall abide by ICANN adopted specifications or policies 
prohibiting or restricting warehousing of or speculation in domain names by 
registrars.”  Will such a policy be forthcoming?

5.  RAA amendment:  registrar shall display conspicuous notice when election is 
made to utilize proxy services that customer data is not being escrowed.  Is 
Board comfortable with this loophole?

6.  RAA amendment:  “In the event that ICANN publishes a webpage that 
identifies available registrant rights and responsibilities”.  When does ICANN 
intend to publish such a page?

7.      One would think that an organization committed to transparency would 
publicly post the registrar accreditation applications.  Will this ever happen?

8.      ICANN Staff issued a Draft Statement of Work for Funnel Review 
(indicating a review is consistent with ICANN's efforts to improve 
policies/procedures).  Can we also expect a UDRP review?

9.      RIRs are considering proposals to permit market-based address 
transfers.  Does the Board have a view on this development?

10.  When will ICANN articulate a transparent mechanism, that includes 
community agreement, for the disposition of excess new gTLD revenues, should 
there be any, given ICANN’s non-profit status?
