The task force has made some major progress with an endorsement of a
policy proposal to council that deals with instances where registrars
and registries require exceptions to their ICANN contract because of
conflicts with national law. The Registrar Constituency recently voted
to support an amended version of this proposal. The results from the
task force very closely match those amendments we supported.

A summary from the recent meeting follows. Please let me, Jordyn, Paul,
Tom or Tim know if you have any questions...
