These points in years time will lay on the table for years to come, because a business is running why hamper it too much. Just do the expected least, when the issue comes then we will figure out , what next. </div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">But I think staff could clear out and be very very specific rather than keeping open doors of ambiguity in the document.</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">That’s why I just wanted to put the issues forefront :) </div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">But my suggestion to be clear and impartial and within legal bounds those regional governmental groups have to be agreements and WIPO. In my self experience it would eliminate a lot of our issues where politics comes in. I know what the pure commercial houses under GNSO think and there agenda. We need to move forward and accomplish something before our terms are over. The rest we know how things are challenged or more likely goes in discussions without results which sometimes takes years.</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Perhaps, we can just arbitrate and not go into the enforcement or application. That would be my first take away. If you look at the document with a focused legal view their are loopholes that could just put ICANN in trouble or make things longer. A framework that limits liabilities is a must from my take. </div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Kris </div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Ps: talk soon.</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">PS: close the gaps before it opens up Pandora’s box.</div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On 15 Feb 2021, at 16:44, Chris Disspain <chris@disspain.uk> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">Hello Kris,<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Thank you for your email below and the one sent before it. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I agree with Paul that you do, indeed, raise interesting questions. In fact, some of the issues you raise go to the very core of the way in which management of the domain name space is structured, how far down the chain of domain levels one should seek to manage or to set policy for and numerous other matters of of principle. Were we able to gather at an ICANN meeting I would, without doubt, enjoy at least one long discussion within you (in a bar perhaps) on these matters and how to take them forwards. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">However, I also agree with Paul that most of what you discuss in your 2 notes is outside of the scope of this WT which has a very specific and narrow mandate. </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I look forward to our first call in a week and the opportunity for us as a team to reach a clear understanding of the scope and boundaries of this WT.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><div class="">
