Good Afternoon,

 

My apologies for missing the last meeting, it sounds like it was a good productive meeting.

 

I believe that the milestones that the team came up (listed below) are appropriate.

 

With the actual implementation specifics unknown until they are complete and published I would propose a 12+ month period for Registrars from the point of OTE availability to the required implementation (cutover). The “+” is due to not knowing the specific implementation details of the system changes that the Registry will be making.

 

 

Thanks

Roger

Subject: Transition - Input on Implementation Timeline for New Registrations

 

Dear IRT Members,

 

In our last IRT meeting on 11 February the following set of milestones was proposed for the implementation of the transition from thin to thick of new registrations in .COM, .NET and .JOBS:

  • Finalization of Thick WhoIs Policy
  • Registries to make system changes
  • Registrar notification of changes
  • Introduction of optional thick (contact support) in OT&E
  • Introduction of optional thick (contact support) in Production
  • Registrar notification/transition period
  • Cutover to required thick (contacts) for new registrations in OT&E
  • Cutover to required thick (contacts) for new registrations in Production

It was further agreed that affected parties participating in the IRT would share their requirements in terms of notification periods and duration for each of these phases.

 

With a view to reaching an agreement on an implementation timeline for the existing registration track during our next IRT meeting (currently being planned during the ICANN 55 meeting from 5 to 10 March), we would like to request you provide your input as soon as possible, and at the latest by Wednesday 24 February COB. This would allow for discussion of contributions on the mailing list prior to the meeting. 

 

In the meantime, please share on this list any questions you may have in relation to the above milestones.

 

Thank you in advance for your collaboration

 

Best Regards
