Greeting Jordan and fellow Council members,

 

I happily stand corrected by Jordan on this matter, and withdraw my concern.  He’s paying much more attention to this specific issue that I am!  Always good to continue my track record to be the occasional embarrassing idiot before fellow Council members! 😉

 

Best Regards,

/Stephen

Kia Ora everyone 

 

Stephen I’ve done a wee bit of research on this. From section 1.1 of the issues report:

 

“The Transfer Policy, formerly referred to as the Inter‐Registrar Transfer Policy (IRTP), is an ICANN consensus policy that went into effect on 12 November 2004. The policy governs the procedure and requirements for registrants to transfer their domain names from one registrar to another, also referred to as an inter-registrar transfer. The goal of the Transfer Policy was to provide for enhanced domain name portability, resulting in greater consumer and business choice and enabling registrants to select the registrar that offers the best services and price for their needs.”

 

Ref: 

https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/final-issue-report-pdp-transfer-policy-review-12jan21-en.pdf

 

As such I think I stand by our triage committee recommendation - the idea of ICANN ever trying to insert itself into ccTLD inter-registrar transfer policies seems remote to me.

 

Cheers!

Jordan

Greetings all.

 

First, thank you Joke for hitting me over the head with this additional reminder regarding this matter.

 

To my fellow Council members:  My gut is telling me that we should have (at least) a representative (“observer”?) on this GNSO PDP.  Perhaps I am mis-understanding what the GNSO means by “Transfer” in their sphere, in which case my concerns might well be mis-placed.  However, from my position as the chair of the two WG’s involved in ccTLD Retirement policy and subsequent Review Mechanisms, I think there is a need for involvement in what the GNSO is about to embark on, at least informally.

 

Best Regards,
