<p class="MsoPlainText">We do wish to mention here that the "general objection to all transfer requests received by the Registrar, either temporarily or indefinitely." can be made even stronger by our proposal in section I (TIMELOCK ACCESS TO TAC GENERATOR,
AKA "VACATION MODE" or "LOCKDOWN MODE") of our submission. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Also, the "express objection to the transfer" will be ineffective if the Losing FOA is eliminated, and/or it's too late if the transfer has already completed before the registrant has the opportunity to learn of an unauthorized transfer.
Thus, the Losing FOA must be retained (at least as an option!). <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">For the time limits in I.A.3.7.5 and I.A.3.7.6, it makes more sense to us for the registry to enforce the times, rather than the registrar.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoPlainText">The RrSG notes that the notification of UDRP or URS procedure must come from the Provider and as such there may in some cases be a delay between the time of registration and the time of notification of the dispute. It is important that
the timing of transfer denials be carefully considered to ensure that a registrant does not move between registrars in order to avoid the UDRP or URS and, should that occur, rollback of the transfer in these scenarios should be considered in the appropriate
phase of this TPR WG.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoPlainText">Transfer Policy Fee: We have heard there are cases of high transfer fees in some registrars. This is especially very restrictive for noncommercial users. Therefore, as the policy recommendations mentions the ground nonpayment as one
of the denial of transfer, we expect to see the issue of high fees in terms of domain name transfer be fully discussed and addressed by the working group and requiring unreasonable fees be discouraged.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoPlainText">A Registrar may not withhold a domain name transfer; however, we have seen some Registrars charge their customers significant fees for moving their domain names away. . .It is our view that Registrants should not be forced to pay "exit"
fees when they are trying to move to a new Registrar that better suits their needs. We have reviewed such a third-party agreement (between a Registrar and Registrant), and the terms regarding exit fees were ambiguous at best, but without a clear policy to
deal with this issue, it created an opportunity for the Registrar in question to use transfer out fees as a tool to deter their clients from leaving. If the goal of the transfer policy is to provide for enhanced domain name portability, resulting in greater
consumer and business choice, then these fees fly in the face of this fundamental principle and should not be allowed.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoPlainText">"Silence" (i.e. no response) should be interpreted conservatively. So, in I.A.3.9.2, the default behaviour from a security point of view should be to deny a transfer, unless you have affirmative consent (i.e. if there's no "ACK", then
the transfer should be denied, even if there's no "NACK"). That's how things once used to be, but then it got changed to where the transfer would automatically go through by default, if there was no response. This is the "UltraSecure" option mentioned above
(section F. "THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS" PROPOSAL TO RETAIN THE LOSING FOA ON AN OPT-IN BASIS BY REGISTRANTS) that registrants should be allowed to have the choice to opt-in to. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Small point, but in I.A.3.9.5, we've never liked the term "reseller" (although it's a defined term in the RAA). Some in the public (and UDRP complainants in particular) might use the label to imply that a "reseller" must be registering
domain names in order to resell them (rather than someone that simply has access to a registrar's advanced systems, to be able to access white-label platform for registration services, or a "pro" interface). That confusion over the meaning of "reseller" might
negatively impact a registrant. So, it would be nice at some point to revisit the term "reseller", and perhaps replace it with "Value Added Integrator" or some other term that doesn't reference buying/selling domains themselves (as opposed to domain registration
services). The "registration service provider" term is also fine.<o:p></o:p></p>
