Dear all,
For your information:
ICANN GNSO support staff is seeking input and feed-back from the broader community on its Preliminary Issue Report on the Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy (IRTP) Part D. This step is required under to the GNSO Policy Development Process. If you want to know more about it or provide input and feed-back, additional information can be found at: http://www.icann.org/en/news/public-comment/irtp-d-prelim-issue-report-14nov12-en.htm.

Background: The Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy (IRTP) is an existing community consensus policy that was implemented in late 2004 and is now being reviewed by the GNSO. The IRTP aims to provide a straightforward procedure for domain name holders to transfer their names from one ICANN-accredited registrar to another should they wish to do so. The policy also provides standardized requirements for registrar handling of such transfer requests from domain name holders. The IRTP Part D is the fourth in a series of Policy Development Processes (PDPs) that address areas for improvements in the existing Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy. The GNSO Council requested an Issue Report on IRTP Part D at its meeting on 17 October 2012 (see http://gnso.icann.org/en/resolutions#20121017-4).

Kind regards,
Bart
