MC> ICANN has called for comments regarding ACDR's proposal to serve
MC> as a UDRP provider (link
MC> <http://www.icann.org/en/news/public-comment/acdr-proposal-01mar13-en.htm>
MC> ).  The comment period ends 13-Apr.  (UDRP is the Uniform Domain
MC> Name Dispute Resolution Policy)     
MC>  
MC>  
MC>  
MC>  
MC>    
MC>  
MC> Note: ACDR is the Arab Center for Domain Name Dispute Resolution,
MC> and is affiliated with BC Member Talal Abu-Ghazaleh.   
MC>  
MC>    
MC>  
MC> Phil Corwin and Nat Cohen volunteered as rapporteurs for these
MC> comments.  We circulated Phil's initial draft on 20-Mar.  The BC
MC> held a conference call on 28-March with ACDR representatives to
MC> discuss the first draft (transcript available on request).         
MC>  
MC>    
MC>  
MC>  
MC>  
MC>  
MC> As a result of that discussion, the BC is now considering two alternative positions:
MC>  
MC>  
MC>    
MC>  
MC> Version 1:  The existing BC position, with no comment on the
MC> merits of ACDR's proposal.  This would maintain the present BC
MC> position that no new providers should be approved until ICANN has
MC> standards for UDRP administration.  
MC>  
MC>    
MC>  
MC> Version 2: Amend the present BC position and give "Qualified
MC> Endorsement" to ACDR's proposal.    
MC>  
MC> This alternative repeats the BC's prior rationale for ICANN to
MC> develop standards for UDRP administration.  It then modifies the
MC> prior position to acknowledge that ICANN may approve ACDR's
MC> proposal since they have acknowledged process concerns, answered
MC> questions, and agreed to adopt any standards ICANN develops.  The
MC> endorsement is "qualified" in that the BC requests ICANN to
MC> develop standards for UDRP administration, and suggests a
MC> staff-driven process with community input.   
MC>  
MC>    
MC>  
MC> Voting:      
MC>  
MC>    
MC>  
MC> BC members should vote for either Version 1 or Version 2.    
MC>  
MC>    
MC>  
MC> To vote, please reply to this email indicating your support for Version 1 or Version 2. 
MC>  
MC>    
MC>  
MC> Voting will close on 12-April so that we can submit the comment on 13-April.
MC>  
MC>    
MC>  
MC> Per our charter, a simple majority prevails and the required
MC> quorum is 50 percent of paid BC members.  
MC>  
MC>    
MC>  
MC> As always, members can REPLY ALL at any time to share their views on this issue.
