I have also had a quick look Some of the redline text is about technical matters and I do not have the expertise to comment - so need another pair of eyes. The only questions I would otherwise raised are: In Cl 6.7, ICANN now can grant a fee waiver in its absolute discretion - without having to say why. Do we think that is a problem? In CL 7.5- in the earlier version of the contract, if there was a change of control that was okay, it had to be to an entity that is either wholly owned or directly connected to the Registry. That test has been loosened to a wider test - again, is that a problem. Again, I leave the technical changes to others, but otherwise, don’t have comments Holly On 2 Jun 2016, at 7:18 am, Cheryl Langdon-Orr <langdonorr@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi all... I have also dine a *very quick once over* and concur with Alans appraisal... But note my particular pleasure at seeing the new language in 2.1.5 and more generally relating to IDN's and IANA Db Updates... Others of course should as Alan suggested read and review as well...
