The GNSO Council will begin considering bundling the implementation of T/T with the consistent labelling and display track of ?thick? WHOIS. You may be interested to read the memo written by GDD staff on this proposal. It should be attached to this email. Any thoughts? Thanks.

However, their concerns are with delays in implementing ?thick? whois, not T/T!! :) My understanding is that it would make more practical sense to implement them along side each other, instead of working across each other. This is especially true, since the roll-out of RDAP is already bundled with ?thick? whois. It would also be the same contracted parties implementing both policies one way or the other, wouldn?t it? Unless I?m missing something. Regarding your second concern, there is a good reason why there is no precedent to merging two implementation IRTs, and that?s because IRTs are relatively new anyway. In fact, the details and principles that govern implementation of policies, and the roles of IRTs were only recently developed by the GNSO Policy and Implementation Working Group, and resulted in major changes to the GNSO Operating Procedures, including formalising the roles of IRTs. So I wouldn?t be too worried regarding the lack of precedents. :) Just some thoughts. Thanks.

This is because it is important that T&T recommendations do not get lost in something large and possibly slow. This argument was picked up in the document. > > I also heard a concern in an area where I have little expertise - that there is no precedent for such a merger. Having worked in large British organizations for many years, I know that such things tend to cause procedural delay and it would be worth it to flag this aspect up. > > Regards, > > Chris. > > On 11/05/2016 17:52, Amr Elsadr wrote: >> Hi, >> >> I thought this may be of interest to folks on this list.
