Tim, I applaud this action on behalf of the RrSG, but do have 
questions regarding how the RrSG sees this being implemented.

The content does not seem to be within the picket fence and so no PDP 
is required. But the only means I am aware of for getting such rules 
into the RAA is for the Board to approve them and then they kick in 
on the next RAA renewal - up to 5 years away. On the last RAA change, 
ICANN had to offer financial rewards to Registrars to get them to 
sign onto the revised agreement (and last I heard there were still 
some that have not).

Do you envisage ICANN having to offer additional financial incentives 
in this case, (and still wait up to 5 years for all Registrars to be 
on board)?  Or what else is proposed to actually get this implemented 
in a more timely manner?

Also, do you envisage that this is an obligation that registrars will 
be obliged to pass on to their resellers?
