[Gnso-epdp-team] On the proposed guidance

I was reading through two documents setting out in detail the proposed guidance on legal/natural.
There seems to be more than one Google doc on this and I am not sure which one is the latest or most official, though I suspect it is the one with various people's comments crawling all over it.

I was pretty supportive of the Guidance overall. I had one problem with it, though.
I liked the description of HOW the differentiation needed to take place. But in describing WHEN differentiation takes place and WHO would do it, it sets out 3 "high level scenarios".
The first two are ok. The third scenario (listed as #5 in the document) is that the Registrar does it for the RNH, based on "inferences."

That option just doesn't fly for those of us representing RNH's in this process. We cannot have a registrant's disclosure status or person type determined FOR them by someone else. If we can strike that part of the guidance, I think we can be on our way to a much broader consensus.
