I have updated my SOI below. Glen, please post on the GNSO website. The only change is that for now I no longer participate in the dotMOBI Advisory Group or Policy Advisory Board. For the meeting today, I have no other DOI. Tim Ruiz Updated Statement of Interest 7 October 2010 I am Vice President of Corporate Development and Policy for The Go Daddy Group, Inc. The Go Daddy Group companies include eight ICANN accredited registrars including GoDaddy.com, Inc. GoDaddy.com is a member of the Registrars Constituency of the GNSO and I am its Registered Representative. GoDaddy.com holds a small interest in Afilias Limited for investment purposes. GoDaddy.com and Afilias USA formed a joint venture dba Alliance Registry, in which Afilias USA is the managing member and assumes authority and responsibility for all day-to-day registry operations but it is not currently active. Go Daddy and Afilias also formed a joint venture with MEnet, a Montenegrin company. That joint venture, doMEn doo, was selected by the Government of Montenegro as the Registration Agent for the .me ccTLD. I currently represent Go Daddy on the Board of doMEn. GoDaddy.com is also a member of the United States Council for International Business (USCIB). The USCIB is a member of the Business Constituency of the GNSO. Our primary interest in the USCIB is the DNS and Internet Identifiers Working Group. GoDaddy.com was a founding Member of the Country Code 1 ENUM LLC. I represented GoDaddy.com on the Board of the LLC from Aug 2004 through Dec 2006, at which time GoDaddy.com withdrew from the LLC. In all my positions with the Go Daddy Group, or in the appointments noted above, my focus has been the development and promotion of registrar related business, products, and services.

We've had discussions about this already.
It's clear that the new procs with regards to DOIs are felt by most to be rather cumbersome. The worry is that the Council approved them, it seems without really realising what they entailed.
The problem here is volunteer overload. There's so much stuff coming the Council's way that it may be unreasonable to expect Councillors to see it all or to consider it all with the degree of attention it deserves.
So when we do approve something that, once put into practice turns out to be difficult to work with, perhaps we should have some kind of "quick fix" procedure so that we aren't "lumped" with cumbersome rules for months or even years...

I believe it holds true for the upcoming meeting as most topics are on new gTLD�s. P.S. What is the point of all this? How would a DOI differ on a meeting to meeting basis from a SOI?
5.1 says an SOI pertains to "the Relevant Party's judgment, any matters to be considered by the GNSO Group" [sic], whereas a DOI pertains to "the Relevant Party's judgment on a specific issue," which presumably does not fall within the scope of "any matters"�(?) What is the penalty should I not do a DOI?
5.6 Failure to Comply only addresses an SOI, which is to be provided "prior to the start of a GNSO meeting"�(?)
Probably I'm missing something, but in retrospect the language may have merited more discussion prior to approving the motion�
Best,
Bill
