Subject: </b>[bc-gnso] FOR REVIEW AND VOTE: Alternative positions for ACDR
proposal as UDRP Provider</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3 face="Calibri">ICANN has called for comments regarding
ACDR's proposal to serve as a UDRP provider (</font><a href="http://www.icann.org/en/news/public-comment/acdr-proposal-01mar13-en.htm"><font size=3 color=blue face="Calibri"><u>link</u></font></a><font size=3 face="Calibri">).
The comment period ends 13-Apr. (UDRP is the Uniform Domain
Name Dispute Resolution Policy)</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3 face="Calibri">Note: ACDR is the Arab Center for Domain
Name Dispute Resolution, and is affiliated with BC Member Talal Abu-Ghazaleh.
</font>
<br><font size=3 face="Calibri"> </font>
<br><font size=3 face="Calibri">Phil Corwin and Nat Cohen volunteered as
rapporteurs for these comments. We circulated Phil's initial draft
on 20-Mar. The BC held a conference call on 28-March with ACDR representatives
to discuss the first draft (transcript available on request). </font>
<p>
<br><font size=3 face="Calibri">As a result of that discussion, the BC
is now considering two alternative positions:</font>
<p>
<br><font size=3 face="Calibri">Version 1: The existing BC position,
with no comment on the merits of ACDR's proposal. This would maintain
the present BC position that no new providers should be approved until
ICANN has standards for UDRP administration.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3 face="Calibri">Version 2: Amend the present BC position
and give "Qualified Endorsement" to ACDR's proposal. </font>
<br><font size=3 face="Calibri">This alternative repeats the BC's prior
rationale for ICANN to develop standards for UDRP administration. It
then modifies the prior position to acknowledge that ICANN may approve
ACDR's proposal since they have acknowledged process concerns, answered
questions, and agreed to adopt any standards ICANN develops. The
endorsement is "qualified" in that the BC requests ICANN to develop
standards for UDRP administration, and suggests a staff-driven process
with community input.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3 face="Calibri">Voting: </font>
<br>
<br><font size=3 face="Calibri">BC members should vote for either Version
1 or Version 2. </font>
<br>
<br><font size=3 face="Calibri">To vote, please reply to this email indicating
your support for Version 1 or Version 2. </font>
<br>
<br><font size=3 face="Calibri">Voting will close on 12-April so that we
can submit the comment on 13-April.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3 face="Calibri">Per our charter, a simple majority prevails
and the required quorum is 50 percent of paid BC members.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=3 face="Calibri">As always, members can REPLY ALL at any
time to share their views on this issue.</font>
