A registry service request has been submitted to ICANN for the .vlaanderen and .brussels TLDs to remove certain GRACE periods.

Some Grace periods impact Registrars only, and others may impact Registrants.

The Request can be found at https://www.icann.org/resources/files/1208363-2017-07-20-en.

I am a bit troubled because one of the questions the Registry must answer is "Were consultations with end users appropriate? Which groups were consulted? What were the nature and
content of these consultations?", and the reply was that Registrars were consulted.

I am looking for a volunteer to look at the request and ensure that these grace period removals will not have any impact on Registrants.

The timing on these requests is tight and ICANN has only 15 days to review the request, so any comments we wish to make must be within this window.
