<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">The question is of course a little more complex. The ccNSO considers that disputes about ccTLD management should generally be resolved in-country/territory by “significantly
interested parties” as defined in RFC 1591. The 2005 Principles, by their terms, apply in those situations where the local government and the ccTLD manager <i>agree</i> that they apply. If “significantly interested parties” have agreed that the GAC Principles
apply to a particular ccTLD, the ccNSO would respect that. </span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""> In any case, one would at least need to ask whether, with respect to a particular ccTLD, significantly interested parties have adopted the GAC Principles (2005). In addition,
the GAC considers their 2005 Principles on del/redel to be formal “Advice” subject to Bylaw mandated consultation, etc. They are part of the mix of issues to be considered. I don’t want to speak for all of the ccTLD operators, but I am comfortable reflecting
this in the documentation. </span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><o:p></o:p></span></p>

principles. I understand that in a normal business environment that respondents would not change the wording from an RFP but I don’t think that we are a normal business environment. More importantly, it is my impression that the ICG with good intentions
tried to create an RFP as a one size fits all for all three of the areas that need to respond. But in the case of names, the source of policy is much more complex, and that may be even more the case for ccTLDs. It was our belief that to present just pure
sources of policy would be incomplete. The ICG could decide that we are wrong on that. At this stage, the CWG needs to evaluate our approach and recommend changes if they think they are needed.</span></i></b><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><o:p></o:p></span></p>

the RFP. The ICG is asking for the sources of policy or policy development. IF the GAC “principles and guidelines” or the CCNSO documents establish criteria that “must be followed by the IANA functions operator” then include it; if they are not guiding factors

of the IANA functions. The problem is that the IANA contract does not come from the GNSO, the CCNSO, the GAC, the ALAC or any other part or grouping of the names community. It comes from the U.S. government. So while I understand why you put it in there, I
do not think it quite belongs. The RFP as I understand it is asking for the ways in which the DNS community sets policy for the IANA. </span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><o:p></o:p></span></p>
