Dear Thomas, as indicated by our statements, I currently have my doubts if this motion will have the support of the RrSG in its current form. I expect that there will be a requst for an amendment of sections 2 and 3 forthcoming in the next few days. I fully agree that the council should be constructive in its response to the Board, however not to the extent of telling the Board that it is OK to disregard policy in this special case. That would set a dangerous precedent. Best, Volker Am 28.04.2014 21:35, schrieb Thomas Rickert:

All, please find attached a draft motion in response to the NGPC's letter with respect to Specification 13.

We may need to continue our discussion but one clear message is that it is important to respond in a timely way to the deadline set by the NGPC. Therefore, any associated motion must meet the documents and motions deadline today for the upcoming GNSO Council telephone conference.

The proposed motion encompasses the following messages, which I have heard and read so far:

- There is an inconsistency between Recommendation 9 and Spec 13. - There is an understanding for and recognition of the .BRAND Registries' request. - The Council should respond to the NGPC's request and - in case an inconsistency is existent - make a constructive proposal on how to deal with this.

Therefore, I have included additional clauses to state that the Council does not oppose the implementation of all of Spec 13 now, but requests that the Board make sure that appropriate safeguards are put in place in future rounds. Also, I have included a clause on the Council reserving the right to initiate a PDP if need be.

I hope this is an acceptable compromise and I am more than happy to discuss this further.

Thanks, Thomas
