Speaking in my purely personal capacity … Just to clarify - not ALL contracted parties are going to be pushing as hard for a next round as others ..
I’m not saying that we are opposed to a new round - a lot of registrars obviously aren’t - but not all of us are going to be as motivated for a new round as others
I’m on the record as saying that quite a few things from the current round need to be reviewed.
Thanks for your follow-up. I am sure that not all contracted parties might wish another round. In fact, there are surely some Registries that are starting business from the current round and are no looking forward to having another round tailing behind them. Ditto for Registrars that have to sign more and more agreements with more Registries. But what I have noticed so far on the GNSO council is that the representatives from Contracted Parties have a unified concern that the process might be delayed - thus reticence to having an initial extended commenting period, concerns that the PDP might take several years. Eagerness to start now. Has a frank discussion taken place in Contracted parties House? Kindest regards, Olivier
