Volker et al,<br><br>
The Chair suggested that this issue should be addressed, but by the Phase
1 IRT. I believe that he was correct in that the issue does need to
be addressed but do not believe that is a real possibility, since the
Phase 1 policy did not imply and web form content requirements. <br><br>
So that leaves us with needing to take some other action to remedy the
Phase 1 recommendation that is not working.<br><br>
Unless you are recommending starting a new PDP just to address this
issue, this is a way to finesse it. We include it in our report and
solicit input. And of course discuss it following the comment
period.<br><br>
If indeed the instructions from the GNSO Council need to be changed
(which I do not believe), that could happen after the public comment
period.<br><br>
This Phase 2a DOES have the mandate to require some form of email address
be used. So we ARE discussing a change to Recommendation 13. If we choose
NOT to do that, we need to make sure the remaining policy is viable. So I
believe this recommendation is indeed in scope!<br><br>

yes, we did discuss it and always returned to the point that it was out
of scope for our group. While I understand the desire to have something
on webforms included, discussion was rather one-sided due to the scope. I
understand from other registrars that there are many issues with input
fields as part of the webforms and they have chosen the format of their
forms for a reason. <br><br>

<dd>To be fair, this issue has been discussed many times during our
meetings. This recommendation merely captures what has already been
proposed by certain SGs. Hence I suggest that it be included for the
purpose of soliciting public comments. <br><br>

<dd>Hi,<br><br>
<dd> <br><br>
<dd>I think it is not appropriate to introduce a new recommendation at
the last minute that has not been deliberated and seems to me to be out
of scope of this WG. While I have no objection to the content of this
recommendation, and KS has already implemented its webforms in a similar
manner, I think the process concern must prevail here. <br><br>

<dd>Unfortunately, Mark and I did not get this in prior to the Friday
deadline, but we still believe that it is crucial to include in the
Initial Report.<br><br>
<dd>Although some form of email address is a far preferable solution for
many on this EPDP, it appears that this will not be a
recommendation.<br><br>
<dd>As it stands, the EPDP Recommendation #13 which is supposed to
facilitate communications with the registrant does not achieve its goal.
Many registrars are using web forms, and in many cases, they are
effectively useless. As an example, one common example is a form that
simply lets the requestor select one of three messages (Domain name or
content is being used in malware, or for spam or abuse; Domain name or
content is infringing on a trademark or violating local laws or
regulations; or Research or other purpose).<br><br>
<dd>It has been suggested that this matter be referred to the Phase 1
IRT, but without a recommendation saying that the policy may set web form
content, there is no way for the IRT to establish such enforceable
rules.<br><br>
<dd>Accordingly, the Initial Report must include a new
Recommendation:<br><br>
<dd>Recommendation<br><br>
<dd>The Phase 1 Recommendation 13 should be amended to include:
Should a Registrar choose to use a web form, that form must allow at the
requester to specify the Subject of the email to be send (up to 64
characters) and a free-form text message of up to 512 characters to be
included in the communication to the registrant.<br><br>
