Re: [registrars] Draft Standardised Form of Authorisation for Transfers
By the time ICANN is done, will there be any aspect of the registrar business that we will be able to decide how to handle for ourselves? --On Wednesday, September 03, 2003 3:33 PM +1000 Bruce Tonkin <Bruce.Tonkin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Hello All, The following Recommendations in the transfers policy relate to a standardised form of authorisation. Recommendation 8 (requirement for gaining registrar) Recommendation 11 (requirement for losing registrar) Recommendation 17 (language of authorisation) Recommendation 18 (form must be useable in paper, fax, web, email) Recommendation 19 (physical process for authorisation) Recommendation 20 (record keeping) Recommendation 22 (record keeping) Recommendation 23 (record keeping). The Transfers Assistance Group to the ICANN staff have requested that I seek input on a Standardized Form of Authorisation. See Elana's earlier posting: http://www.gnso.icann.org/mailing-lists/archives/registrars/msg00157.htm l Below is a draft standardised form of authorisation for use BEFORE a transfer is initiated by sending a command to the registry. It is derived from that used in the .au domain. I look forward to feedback from registrars either on the list or privately if you wish.
