<p><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The GNSO Vertical Integration
Working Group is seeking comments on its Initial Report on Vertical Integration
Between Registrars and Registries. This <a
href="http://gnso.icann.org/issues/vertical-integration/vi-pdp-wg-initial-report-23jul10-en.pdf">Initial
Report</a> [PDF, 731 KB] is posted for <a
href="http://www.icann.org/en/public-comment/public-comment-201008-en.htm#vi-pdp-initial-report">public
comment</a> as a required step in the GNSO’s Policy Development Process
on Vertical Integration between Registrars and Registries. The Initial Report
describes various proposed solutions for restrictions on vertical integration
between registrars and registries for adoption in the New gTLD Program.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Please note:</span></strong><span
style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'> The Working Group is working under an
extremely aggressive schedule in order to meet the requirements that have been
placed on it by the GNSO Council and the ICANN Board. The Working Group is
planning to continue its analysis throughout the public comment period.
Reviewers are encouraged to submit comments early to provide the group as much
time as possible to consider them.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The public comment period
ends on <strong><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>12 August 2010</span></strong>.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><strong><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Background:</span></strong><span
style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The GNSO Council has
commenced a policy development process (PDP) on the topic of vertical
integration between registrars and registries. The GNSO Council formed a
working group to evaluate whether any policy recommendations should be
developed on the topic of vertical integration between registrars and
registries affecting both new gTLDs and existing gTLDs.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>ICANN is currently in the
process of finalizing the implementation details for the launch of new gTLDs.
ICANN has posted four draft applicant guidebooks and a series of topic papers
for public comment describing the manner in which ICANN proposes to implement
this program. These documents include proposals on the topic of vertical
integration and whether cross-ownership restrictions or other rules related to
vertical integration should be adopted to apply to the New gTLD Program.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The Initial Report describes
several proposals regarding vertical integration that have been developed and
analyzed by the VI Working Group. No proposal has achieved consensus support
within the VI Working Group. These proposals are included for the purpose of
seeking public comment and will be subject to further analysis and debate as
the VI Working Group continues to strive to develop a consensus position to
recommend to the GNSO Council on an expedited basis.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The Initial Report published
for public comment is a “snapshot” of a living document that will
be revised several times during the public comment period. Reviewers are
encouraged to check on the working-group wiki for the latest version of this
Initial Report.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>This public comment forum is
an opportunity to comment on any of the proposed vertical integration models
that are described the Initial Report. The Initial Report will be posted for a
public comment period that closes on <strong><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>12
August 2010</span></strong>. Comments can be sent to <a
