RE: [registrars] Very important: Forming a group for comments on .NET RRA

Bhavin:

I'd like to be part of the group.  I already have prepared a redline of
some changes I would like to see in the RRA.  I can circulate it to the
group as a starting point.  Thanks.

Jon

Subject: [registrars] Very important: Forming a group for comments on
.NET RRA


Hi everyone,

As mentioned in the Luxembourg conference, by Vint, the .NET RRA
(Registry
Registrar Agreement) is still open for public comment until Sep 1 2005,
giving us 1 month.

Instead of having people provide random comments I would much rather
have a
coordinated exercise where all of us as Registrars can offer atleast to
some
degree a combined feedback on the Agreement.

I propose we form a group amongst us who studies the .NET RRA. The rest
of
us can then send our notes and comments to this group and we may then
make a
combined statement. Offcourse registrars are free to make independent
comments apart from this anyways. However any important aspects should
be
sent as a combined statement from all registrars.

I need volunteers who wish to take up this task and who will within the
next
10-15 days present differences between the orignal RRA and this new one,
as
well as highlight areas of concerns and comments.

Can I get a show of hands on people interested

Thanks
Bhavin

Subject: Important Notice - Registrar Advisory Regarding the .net
Registry-Registrar Agreement ("RRA")

Dear Registrar:

The purpose of this advisory is to inform all Registrars of .net domain
names of the expected schedule and procedure for transitioning from the
current version of the RRA to the new standard RRA for .net.  

During the ICANN Board Meeting held in Luxembourg, ICANN extended the
period
for providing input concerning the .net RRA to September 1, 2005.
Registrars
therefore should provide any input to ICANN by that date. Following the
end
of this period, on September 15, 2005, VeriSign plans to distribute to
all
.net Registrars the final RRA that will replace the existing RRA in
accordance with applicable requirements. 
  
The .net agreement is posted for comments and can be found on the ICANN
website at http://www.icann.org/tlds/agreements/net.

Regards,

Raynor Dahlquist
