<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Please find enclosed a redline which reflects the changes made to the last version of the RRA. All of the previous changes which were not subject to any comments have been accepted.
With respect to the substantive comments, I kept in the word “material” because there are so many changes to the systems for so many minor reasons that have no impact on registrars, so we cant provide notice for those types of changes. That said, for material
changes, I added a minimum notice period of 30 days, which is standard in the industry.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">With the second comment on RDAP/WHOIS, of course we would not be obligating the Registrar to maintain any service not required by ICANN. I inserted the words “as applicable” which
hopefully resolves that point. I believe it does, but if for whatever reason you are not satisfied with that addition, please recommend another path forward.<o:p></o:p></p>

- Previously, under what is now Section 2.3, the registry guaranteed registrars “commercially reasonable notice” of any changes to the System. As you have inserted that this notice will only be required for “material” changes, the RrSG is uncomfortable with
the change. We would specifically ask for either a specific notice period required for material changes, or removal of “material” and have notice required for all changes. As changes to the System could require engineering efforts by registrars, which can
require significant time and planning, we would prefer to build in one of these buffers.<o:p></o:p></p>
