risks for an application. <b>Question from Jeff: How exactly would DAAR be used for this purpose? DAAR looks at current activity within a particular string, not at the likelihood of security threats in future applications.</b><o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Outstanding Items:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">General Considerations for Program Implementation:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- GAC Comment - How would DAAR be used be used for this purpose? Not an RSP pre-approval issue -- ACTION ITEM: Ask for clarification.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- RrSG: New Idea - Program should take into consideration interoperability with ICANN-accredited registrars and there should be additional standardization of certain operational requirements. Note from Jeff: In discussion with Registrars
at GDD Summit, they indicated that this comment was meant for all RSPs and not just those in the Pre-Approval Program. So to the extent that in general we adopt this requirement, it would be adopted for all RSPs.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- NCSG: New Idea - The program should be clear and transparent. Supports public cataloging of receipts against RSPs, and investigation and response taken to the complaints, as well as a process for rejecting approved RSPs. Comment from
Jeff: Generally there are no compliance actions against an RSP, but rather against Registry Operators. How would this information be used?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u>Discussion</u>:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- The third-parties don’t have a contract with ICANN so don’t see how you could have a publicly available list. Not sure there is any value.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- Issues: 1) public cataloging of complaints; 2) Once you are on a pre-approved list how is a company removed and how is that communicated? Focus on the second question.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- Don’t think the pre-approval process would be public -- you are either on the list or not.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- If we are going to talk about a mechanism to get a company off the pre-approved list, we should think about what is the point and what are the impacts.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- Could indicate whether part of the question is not implementable.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- The pre-approval is you are pre-approved or you are not. If you provide back end services for a registry operator and the RO breaches SLAs there will be consequences for the RSP, but those consequences are determined by the RO.<span style="font-family:"MS Gothic"">
</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- These are private contracts. Mechanisms for un-preapproval don't really have a place.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- The intent of the pre-approval is to overcome the repetitive nature of the technical evaluation experienced in the 2012 round.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- There isn’t a concept of an “unapproved” RSP. When we talk about RSPs and if they become “unapproved” that is a business proposition. This isn’t a certification process, but you are qualified to do business in the accreditation program.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- Maybe instead call them “pre-evaluated” RSPs.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- QUESTION: Does RSP pre-approval apply regardless of the services to be provided in connection with a particular application or is the ability to meet the needs related to proposed new services part of the evaluation even if the RSP is
Pre-approved? QUESTION<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- What might be at issue here is what's the term of the pre-approval? It holds until the completion of the application and evaluation process. From then on the registry operator is responsible for meeting the technical requirements.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- How is the applicant protected if there is a problem?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- If there are new registry services proposed then there would need to be a new evaluation.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- In terms of the applicant, one of the solutions could be if the applicant picked a RSP that had been taken off the list then the applicant could have time to pick another pre-approved RSP. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- On the EBERO and what it takes to get someone off the list, we haven’t agreed on that yet. Not sure what process that would be.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- The pre-approval holds until the completion of the application/evaluation process. After that the RO is responsible for meeting the technical requirements. Not sure how you would remove pre-approval.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- Whether an RSP is on a pre-approved list or not: Should be that at a point in time this RSP has qualified against a standard set of questions and that this stands for a period of time. There still would need to be monitoring by the
RO.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- Agreement on the need for more information from ICANN on the EBERO-triggering incidents.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- This was supposed to provide efficiencies in the process. This was never meant to be an accreditation.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- Need to decide how long the pre-approval lasts and when another evaluation is required.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- the assumption was that the RSPs would retain their quality for that period of time, subject to pre-delegation testing.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Timing of Program Launch:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- Set up principles: 1) That applicants should be able to use the results of a pre-approval program should allow sufficient time for an applicant to be able to use the results when they are deciding to apply for a new string.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">-- Not consistent with the comments of RySG -- the pre-approval is a condition for the next round.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Next meeting: Start with Factoring in the Number of TLDs the RSP Intends to Support.<o:p></o:p></p>
