Hello All, I wish to advise that: - I am an employee of Melbourne IT - Melbourne IT is a 10% shareholder in Neulevel - Neulevel may apply to be the successor registry operator for .net As a result of the potential conflict of interest, I will not vote on the resolution relating to .net.

Should neither Ross nor Tom be available, I appoint Alick Wilson as my proxy. Regards, Bruce Tonkin GNSO Council representative selected by the registrars constituency

Text for resolution on .net criteria
by Bruce Tonkin 05 Aug '04

05 Aug '04

Hello All, With regard to item 3 on the agenda, here is some proposed text for a resolution with respect to the .net criteria. "In response to the letter from Paul Verhoef on 31 March 2004 requesting that the GNSO provide advice with a consensus statement defining the criteria to be applied in the selection of a successor registry operator for .net, and in accordance with section 5.2 and 4.3 of the .net registry agreement, the GNSO recommends that the following criteria (as detailed in the Final report of the GNSO subcommittee at http://www.gnso.icann.org/mailing-lists/archives/council/pdf00001.pdf) be applied: - absolute criteria related to the targeting - absolute criteria related to continuity - absolute criteria related to policy compliance - absolute criteria related to stability, security, technical and financial competence - relative criteria related to promotion of competition - relative criteria relating to stability, security, technical and financial competence - relative criteria related to existing registry services, and provides the attached written report (http://www.gnso.icann.org/mailing-lists/archives/council/pdf00001.pdf), which includes all substantive submissions to the GNSO relating to this recommendation, as required in section 4.3.1 of the .net agreement. Absolute criteria are thresholds which an applicant is expected to meet, and relative criteria become relevant once absolute criteria are met and are recommended as a basis for comparison and evaluation of competing applications." Regards, Bruce Tonkin
