Considering the work of the Tasting Group
Avri - In order to properly consider the forthcoming recommendations of the working group on tasting, I would like to get some further data from staff as background information. Specifically, I would like to understand staff experience in enforcing clause 3.74 of the Registrar Accreditation Agreement. a) How many enforcement cases have been opened related to this clause in the last 5 years? b) How were these cases resolved? (identifying information is not necessary, but specifics would be useful) c) Does staff view 3.7.4 as an effective hedge against abuse of the AGP, if so, why? If not, why not? Would it be possible for you to pass this request along to staff? My instinct tells me that this is more of an enforcement failure than it is a policy failure and I'd like to understand this better before I vote on initiating a PDP. -- Regards, Ross Rader Director, Retail Services Tucows Inc. http://www.domaindirect.com t. 416.538.5492
I would also like this information requested by Ross, though I do not think it is required before a vote whether to launch a PDP. Still, if we can have it before next week's meeting, it could be helpful in reaching maximum consensus on next steps. I will submit the ad hoc group's report to Council tomorrow as scheduled, and will propose a motion for Council consideration as well.

To be clear Mike, I'm not asking for a delay, just to be informed. :-) To be candid, I probably won't vote in favor of this PDP unless I'm brought to understand why the issues we're concerned about aren't solely related to enforcement failures. To be fair, my mind is completely open on this question, so there is lots of room to achieve the consensus you are looking for. Thanks for supporting this request. I'm looking forward to receiving the final work of this group. -ross Mike Rodenbaugh wrote:

What is the status of this request? I am not prepared to vote on a motion regarding this work until I can consider the report with the benefit of these answers. It does not make sense for us to consider developing new policy if we have existing terms on the books that can otherwise deal with the behaviors we are concerned with. Ross Rader wrote:

Ross, You mentioned a short time ago that there were three steps the Council could take now with regard to tasting. Would you please post them? I think I know two of them, but it would be helpful to know for sure. Thanks.
