I started to put down some thoughts on it and especially on reasons for creating such a program. Those thoughts developed into the attached paper. For reasons stated in the paper, I think the discussion about such a program should occur sooner rather than later - whether it be in this group or some other group.</div><div><br></div><div>The paper is also posted on CircleID: <a href="http://www.circleid.com/posts/20160803_why_registry_service_providers_should_be_accredited_by_icann/">http://www.circleid.com/posts/20160803_why_registry_service_providers_should_be_accredited_by_icann/</a> </div><div><br></div><div>Thanks in advance to anyone who takes time to read and consider it. I'd be pleased to answer questions, either via email or in a meeting.</div><div><br></div><div>Best regards,</div><div><br></div><div>Kurt</div><div><br></div><div><br><div apple-content-edited="true">
