I note that the format of the list is not specified here, our intent was only to get away from the expectation that registrars have had about a certain formatted list (e.g., tag all increases and decreases) as well as recognize that we do not like to distribute
these en masse as attachments in emails as we view it as a proprietary work product (and prefer to provide at registrar request or to direct registrars to the CentralNic console). Also timing and version control en masse of the lists can be finicky (and I
can talk through examples on the call as needed). </li><li style="font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Grande', 'tahoma', Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 22px; margin: 0in">

I view this as routine language that entered into the agreement by way of the CentralNic master agreement and/or legal review as we prepared the .gay RRA (on which the updates are based). In my reading, this language was likely carved out in the case of some
emerging policies we would need to stay ahead of (e.g. new legislation that ICANN org/community does not adequately get in front of and requires us/registries to create our own policies). </li><li style="font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Grande', 'tahoma', Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 22px; margin: 0in">

I agree that this does seem broad and am open to a "reasonableness" clause. I think it is not strange or surprising that Registries reserve the rights to intervene with a given name for broad reasons. I suspect this is fairly common, especially as it has roots
in the CentralNic master agreement. I also believe that this is hardly ever exercised by any Registry. </li></ul></ul><p style="color: #888; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Grande', 'tahoma', Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14px !important; font-weight: normal; line-height: 22px; margin: 0in" dir="ltr"> 5.16 Written Complaints</p></div><div><ul dir="auto" style="list-style-type: disc; margin: 10px 0 0in 30px; padding-left: 15px"><li style="font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Grande', 'tahoma', Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 22px; margin: 0in">

I am open to leaving this in. I suspect in this case that legal review didn't like how mushy this word is.

We have nothing envisioned specifically here. We created unique content restrictions and related processes for .gay (which are not carried over here) but I would define that as Acceptable Use and Abuse policies and not a Dispute Resolution Policy and so I do

Aside from the .gay
example, I know of other registries that have contracts ranging from 30 - 90 days. Many of us likely saw that just this week, .qpon sent out a 90 day notice of price increase of its standard names. So, continuing to require 180 days on .DESIGN, .INK, and .WIKI
per your Jan 28th email does not feel equitable. I hope we can agree on something that respects your needs as well as recognizes the many other counter-examples already in the market. </p></div></div><div><p style="color: #888; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Grande', 'tahoma', Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14px !important; font-weight: normal; line-height: 22px; margin: 0in" dir="ltr"> </p></div><div><p style="color: #888; font-family: 'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Grande', 'tahoma', Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: 14px !important; font-weight: normal; line-height: 22px; margin: 0in" dir="ltr">Thanks!
