Dear Tim:&nbsp; The following is a proposed amendment to the following
paragraph in the present Motion:<br><br>
<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">Furthermore, presenting anything
to the registrant other than the Domain<br>
Name Registration Agreement (or Terms and Conditions) during the<br>
registration process is an entirely new obligation that would
require<br>
many registrars to completely re-establish their method of
registration.<font color="#FF0000"> For<br>
wholesale registrars, this represents a highly onerous burden.
</font></blockquote><br>
I propose that the text, &quot;For wholesale registrars, this represents
a highly onerous burden&quot;, be stricken from the Motion.<br><br>
Discussion:&nbsp; In my opinion, much of the criticism which is directed
against ICANN Accredited Registrars results from the loose connections
between said Accredited Registrars and strings of resellers.&nbsp; It is
alleged that some resellers appoint subordinate levels of resellers and
that sometimes these resellers are unaware of the identify of the
Accredited Registrar receiving their registrations.&nbsp; Still further,
it is alleged that some resellers are acting as resellers for two or more
Accredited Registrars.&nbsp; <br><br>
The persons drafting the Task Force recommendations may well be directing
their criticisms at practices which are not committed by Accredited
Registrars but rather at practices of some but not necessarily all
resellers of a few Accredited Registrars.<br><br>
end of comments:<br><br>
I solicit an endorsement (second) to this proposed amendment, namely that
the text &quot;For<br>
wholesale registrars, this represents a highly onerous burden&quot; be
stricken from the Motion.<br><br>
Regards, <br>
Robert Connelly<br>
Member of the Constituency<br><br>
