All,

I just wanted to express my gratitude again to everyone who made it 
out to the ICANN conference in India.  It was a late night/morning 
here in EST but I was pleased to have the opportunity to attend the RC 
meeting by phone.

There were times I would have liked to express my opinions but the 
phone connection wasn't great.  I know there was at least one time 
that Tim from GoDaddy tried to make comments too.  For future 
meetings, assuming the phone connection is clear, is it acceptable for 
people on the phone to also participate, or are they only permitted to listen?

Furthermore, is it possible for people to attend other ICANN meetings by 
phone or is that only for the RC meeting?

In regards to the RC meeting itself, there was a lot of healthy 
discussion and great points were made.  I was somewhat disappointed to 
not hear more comments on the option for providing additional 
allowance at times when the suggested threshold was exceeded due to 
testing or fraud.  I think it may have been mentioned but I would have 
liked more weight to be given that point.  It could have also been 
clarified that Nominet currently has this very discretionary method in place.

I also felt that several people made great points against locking 
domains for 60 days following a whois update.  Elliot in particular 
made some incredibly strong arguments and I agree with his statements. 
 I couldn't tell who, but either Kurt or Paul stated that it is under 
review whether those actions are against policies, and that they'd get 
back to us within a week.  I'm eager to hear their final decision.

As an aside, I don't know if this is acceptable or not, but I wonder 
if it'd be possible to record the RC meetings and make them available 
for download (by members only) via the website eventually.

Best Regards,

~Paul
