Hiya's Personally speaking, I am good with a 6 month cycle. Then again, I been looking at this since November last year and had several team meetings at the office, and since we use the scrum methodology for a few years now we simply add this to a few sprints. For other Registrars I could imagine they need more time, not every Registrar is a member of the RrSG (sad but true) and then there is that huge blind spot called Asia. None of them where present during the WG or IRT, nor did we receive any comments from that region.

This is reminder to provide any final feedback on the attached draft by Thursday, 30 July . If I do not receive any feedback on the draft, I will consider the text final. Also, I asked the members on the call about timing for coming into compliance once the policy is announced. The default policy cycle is six months ( https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/gdd-policy-change-calendar-13may... ), but the members on the call today asked for registrars’ input on if six months is enough time. We may, for example, choose to deviate from the standard six-month cycle. As there are no calls scheduled at this time, please provide any feedback you have over the email list. Thank you!

For those of you unable to make it to today’s call, please find a recording here: https://icann.adobeconnect.com/p4maun572zp/ . I have attached the latest draft of the policy, which has a small change as a result of today’s call. There are also a few numbering changes. There are a few things that we are awaiting feedback on. Specifically, please take a look at: (1) the definition of “Designated Agent” in paragraph 1(c). (2) the circumstances described in paragraph 2.3, specifically 2.3(iv). (The IRT wanted to confirm that this gave registrars enough flexibility to update Whois information in the event of potential abuse). Also, I asked the members on the call about timing for coming into compliance once the policy is announced. The default policy cycle is six months ( https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/gdd-policy-change-calendar-13may... ), but the members on the call today asked for registrars input on if six months is enough time. We may, for example, choose to deviate from the standard six month cycle. If you have any further comments on the attached draft or on the policy cycle timing, please provide feedback by Thursday, 30 July , two weeks from today’s date. Thank you!
