Jon,

Thanks for this initiative.  You have my support.

Whereas, registrars only succeed if they provide
valuable services to their customers;

Whereas, registrants must be protected against the
potential bad acts of disreputable registries and
registrars;

Whereas, within the scope of ICANN's mission and
mandate, it is incumbent on it to protect registrants
against the potential bad acts of disreputable gTLD
registries and registrars;

Whereas, ICANN Staff has recently formulated a new
Compliance Program for gTLD Registries and Registrars;


Whereas, ICANN Staff has recently announced its
success in furthering a data escrow requirement for
gTLD registries
http://www.icann.org/announcements/announcement-05mar07.htm;

Whereas, ICANN Staff has not yet specified a schedule,
terms, or a format of a data escrow requirement for
gTLD registrars; 

Whereas, many registrars currently secure registrant
and domain name data through various back-up methods,
but that this practice is by no means uniform or
compulsory across all accredited registrars;

Whereas, the various back-up methods used by
registrars may not be sufficient in all cases to
assist ICANN Staff in recovering such data in the
event of registrar business failure; and

Whereas, recent events have highlighted the need for a
registrar data escrow program and enhanced compliance
efforts with regard to requirements in the Registrar
Accreditation Agreement.

Be it resolved that the undersigned registrars call
for ICANN Staff to work with the ICANN Registrar
Constituency to finalize the terms of a gTLD registrar
data escrow program; and 

Be it further resolved that the undersigned registrars
call for ICANN Staff to work with the ICANN Registrar
Constituency to improve the
effectiveness of the ICANN Compliance Program for gTLD
Registrars.
