I've copied Craig Schwartz of ICANN in on this email; he's the liaison to the registrars. It may be that such an informational session is already planned; if not, perhaps he will have an idea about how we can have a discussion on the subject you've raised.

Once we're chatting about agenda items, I am interested to have a session on the new Auth code requirements for initiating a registrar transfer process. This makes things incredibly difficult for registrants to change their registrar should they be unhappy with the service they receive. Changing registrars has become an obstacle/ assault course. Possible? warm regards, Alan On 16 Feb 2007, at 10:55 AM, Nick Ashton-Hart wrote:
Dear all:
Since ALAC, African and European ALSes are all meeting in Lisbon, I'm wondering if we can do some substantive work with respect to the domain name tasting issue.
Of course, if one region wants to do more with this than another, that's fine - but it occurs to me we will have lots of experts and staff people around in Lisbon; lets make the most of them.
I'd like to ask, in particular, the ICANN Staff Registry Liaison to come and talk, at least with the ALAC but if it is in an open meeting perhaps also with other groups - or separately also with regions - and that conversation could be about registry issues in general with a focus on tasting.
Without objection, I'll put a placeholder into the draft agenda of each group for a discussion on registry issues. We can always then remove it of course.
