<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">&nbsp;</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">This version incorporates the latest feedback from the list.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">For those new to this document, the objective is to define the technical requirements of the URS Procedures (latest version:
<a href="http://newgtlds.icann.org/en/applicants/urs/procedure-01mar13-en.pdf">http://newgtlds.icann.org/en/applicants/urs/procedure-01mar13-en.pdf</a>) included in the AGB. The objective is to use the EPP RFCs as much as possible while trying to not impact
 the normal domain registration lifecycle.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">&nbsp;</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">The procedures define email as the communication mechanism between URS providers and Registries/Registrars, therefore the URS technical requirements document defines email as the communication mechanism. If the
 volume of URS request grows high, the ICANN community may want to define a new mechanism (EPP, using an API, centralized operations, etc.) in the future and ICANN is willing to help in the effort.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">&nbsp;</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">Regarding other policies that may be impacted by the URS and the leverage of Registries/Registrars to act on URS locked or URS suspended domain names, ICANN is always open to receive questions from Registries/Registrars
 and provide guidance.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">&nbsp;</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">Based on the feedback from the list, we believe that this version could be publish as version 1.0, please let us know as soon as possible if you find any major roadblocks.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
