Thanks, Mary
Regarding the 2007 draft text for an alternative DRP, I believe the opposition comments of the Registry Stakeholder Group are still relevant. One comment in particular is:
"The fundamental question about the current proposal remains - whether or not ICANN should become a global law making body. The WIPO 2 recommendations are tantamount
to asking ICANN to become an “enforcer of treaties”, which is not its proper role."

Dear all,
Following up n the last WG call on 17 December, the WG co-chairs would like to remind everyone to review the 2007 draft text for an alternative dispute resolution process that was created by ICANN staff at the request of the then-GNSO Council, with a view
toward further discussion of the standing and sovereign immunity questions. In addition, since the 17 December call saw a very detailed “walk through” and discussion of the Article 6ter process and scope, the WG co-chairs would like to invite follow up comments
to the mailing list on that topic, as well as encourage members/observers who were not able to join the call to review the discussion that took place.
For your convenience, the agenda, documents, Adobe Connect chat transcript, MP3 recording and meeting transcript have all been uploaded to the WG wiki here:

On behalf of Petter and Phil, our co-chairs, and Berry, Steve and the rest of the ICANN policy staff, here’s wishing you and yours a very happy holiday and a great start to 2015!
Cheers
Mary
