Afnic is the registry operator for top-level domains corresponding to the national territory of France (.fr, .re, .pm, .yt, .wf, .tf) and the backend registry operator for 15 new generic Top Level Domains. Afnic is a member of CCNSO, Centr, and APTLD.
Afnic welcomes the recommendations on Guidelines for standards of conduct presumed to be in good faith associated with exercising removal of individual Directors of the ICANN Board (Guidelines for Good Faith or GGF). These recommendations provide the required clarification on what constitutes Good Faith within the new Community power framework.
The group should be commended for achieving this through simple, clear and effective recommendations.
Afnic’s support includes support for the stand-alone recommendations. Extending the purpose of these guidelines to any discussion regarding the exercice of Community powers appears not only sensible, but also necessary.
Finally, we would like to make two extra suggestions, directed to other aspects of the CCWG-Accountability Work Stream 2. First, the enhancement of SO/AC accountability may also benefit from considering how this type of Good Faith guidelines may be included in a set of SO/AC best practices. Second, we believe similar Guidelines may also be considered by the Staff accountability working group, if issues of Good Faith were raised as part of its issue identification effort.
Best regards,
