First draft on Locking Language
by Volker Greimann Feb. 3, 2014

Feb. 3, 2014

Hi folks, this is still a bit bloated, but it captures what James and I had discussed in the previous week: "When receiving a notice of a transfer complaint by the previous registrant within X months after the transfer from the losing registrar, the gaining registrar shall place the domain name under registrar lock. The registrar lock shall be removed after 30 calendar days unless the gaining registrar receives notice of the pendancy of legal proceedings between the original registrant and the current registrant, in which case the lock shall remain in place until the case is decided or dismissed. /If both the gaining and losing registrar (or, in cases involving multiple transfers, the current registrar and the registrar filing the dispute) agree, then the transfer(s) may be reversed before applying the lock. //Any fees charged for reversed transfers under this policy shall be refunded by the respective registry. No ICANN fees shall apply." / -- Bei weiteren Fragen stehen wir Ihnen gerne zur Verfügung. Mit freundlichen Grüßen, Volker A.

Off the cuff draft:
by Volker Greimann Jan. 14, 2014

Jan. 14, 2014

Very rough first draft for further discussion.... /"Upon receiving a notification from the Losing Registrar of a previous transfer of a domain name of that transfer having occurred either without the knowledge and permission of an earlier Registered Name Holder or in violation of the IRTP, the Registrar of Record shall lock the domain name against modifications or transfers. Registrar shall remove the lock after 21 calendar days unless he receives a notification that court proceedings against the party that initiated the transfer have been initiated, in which case the lock shall be removed only after the proceedings have concluded.//"/ Locking would naturally be interpreted in the context of the Lock-PDP. The notification of initiation of court proceedings would have to have the same requirements as the notifications of the registrant that lost a UDRP. The "party that initiated the transfer" would probably have to be refined, not happy with that term. Naturally, we would also have to amend the ICANN transfer policy to allow for a denial of a transfer in case of a claim of unauthorized prior transfer. -- Bei weiteren Fragen stehen wir Ihnen gerne zur Verfügung.

Julia Charvolen:I am setting audio bridge, it should be on in a few minutes Julia Charvolen:Audio is on in the Adobe Connect Rob Golding (Astutium-1471):waves :) Rob Golding (Astutium-1471):& happy-new-year Rob Golding (Astutium-1471):it was 30+ at night when I was in Miami a few years ago - as a Brit i gelt i was melting into the pavement walking back to the hotel Rob Golding (Astutium-1471):we are used to weather - the cold, wet, windy miserable type - i.e. 'proper' weather :) Volker Greimann:we have not dropped below 0 C the last ew days either. pretty warm here Graeme Bunton:i'm here, but i've been on vacation for three weeks so I can barely remember what i do Graeme Bunton:thank you mikey Avri Doria:for some people, like the local garbage people, thoday is a holiday. Julia Charvolen:Chris Chaplow joined the Adobe Connect Barbara Knight-RySG:Hello all. I just joined. Sorry to be late. Julia Charvolen:Barbara Knight joined the Adobe Connect Avri Doria:my only issue is wording such as 'final disdiscussion' Rob Golding (Astutium-1471):did we 'finalise' the question b issue over multiple transfers ? Lars Hoffmann:@rob: no not yet. it was one of the issue that was still part of the workplan. Rob Golding (Astutium-1471):ok Marika Konings:It might be helpful for this WG to work out those use cases so it will be easier to identify whether or not these are covered under the implementation of IRTP Part C Rob Golding (Astutium-1471):agreed about the no to registrant starting it Lars Hoffmann:Current Statut of Limitation: Lars Hoffmann:2.3 Statute of LimitationsA dispute must be filed no later than six (6) months after the alleged violation of the Transfer Policy. In the case where a Registrar of Record alleges that a transfer was in violation of this Policy, the date the transfer was completed shall be deemed the date in which the "alleged violation" took place. In the case where a Gaining Registrar alleges that a transfer should have taken place, the date in which the NACK (as defined below) was received by the Registry, shall be deemed the date in which the "alleged violation" took place. Rob Golding (Astutium-1471):yes, I tend to reg and renew in 5 year periods, but log in to my registrar accounts relatively regularlyso would see the domain as missing Volker Greimann:sorry, whare are we right now? Volker Greimann:ok, thx Rob Golding (Astutium-1471):TDRP is for registrars to resolve disputes, not registrants Rob Golding (Astutium-1471):i.e. we 'nak'd' this transfer request but you processed it anyway type complaints Rob Golding (Astutium-1471):yes, it does work for that (its the only time in umpteen years we've ever had to think about it Rob Golding (Astutium-1471):everything else has cenetered around registranst and admin contacts disagreeing over transfers or designers holding domains to ransom or similar Rob Golding (Astutium-1471):shoudl possibly be *original* registrar of record and *initial* gaining registrar Kristine Dorrain:Not ususally. Avri Doria:that is proabably a national variant. Rob Golding (Astutium-1471):Not in the UK - caveat emptor - if the car is stolen no matter how many times it's changed hands, it goes back to the original owner and the peopel in the middle have to go to the courts Kristine Dorrain:Same in the US. Caveat emptor here too Holly Raiche:Yes, I was talking about the good faith principle - purchased in good faith. Holly Raiche:It may be that the courts would recognise ICANN rules on the isue but something to consider Kristine Dorrain:a multi country survey of a single legal issue is a pretty big task... Marika Konings:and not cheap ;-) Chris Chaplow:Thanks Lars Lars Hoffmann:I have to leave the call. Marika will remain on the call however. Very best, Lars Avri Doria:in the US such laws will vary by locality and state. Confiscaation is big in these parts. Avri Doria:and argumentes such as, but you should have checked. Avri Doria:if it was possible to check ND YOU DID NOT CHECK, THEN TOUGH. Volker Greimann:how far down the line do you have to check? Avri Doria:sorry about the caps. cap lock is a mistypeed a. Avri Doria:Volker, depends on the quality of the lawters arguing the case after the fact. Holly Raiche:That is question D Julia Charvolen:Thank you Graeme Bunton:thx mikey

Monday's agenda
by Lars Hoffmann Jan. 10, 2014

Jan. 10, 2014

Dear all, Please find below the draft agenda for Monday's meeting as well as a draft summary of last week's call on Charter Question C and also a draft work plan as discussed. Best wishes, Lars 1. Roll Call / SOI Updates 2. Discussion on draft work plan (see below) 3. Discussion on draft summary on Question C (see below) 4. If time: Revision of previous discussion and draft recommendations on Charter Question B 5. Next steps / confirm next meeting ---- Draft Work Plan: The submission deadline for work documents for the Singapore meeting is Monday 3 March 2014 - this will give the Group eight more meetings, including 13 January and 3 March if a draft Initial Report is to be submitted n time for the Singapore Meeting. Considering that Charter question b (multiple transfers) and c (registrant access to TDRP) are still in need of discussion, here a proposed time table: 13 January: Discussion on Charter Question B 20 January: Final Discussion on Charter Question B and C 27 January: Final Discussion on Charter Question B and C By the end of January a draft Initial Report circulated by Staff 03 February: Final Review of all Recommendations - as part of Draft Initial Report 10 February: Final Review of all Recommendations - as part of Draft Initial Report 17 February: Final Review of all Recommendations - as part of Draft Initial Report 24 February: Final Review of all Recommendations - as part of Draft Initial Report 03 March: Signing off on Draft Initial Report 24-27 March: ICANN Meeting Singapore: 7 April: First meting after Singapore; publication of Initial Report and open Public Comment -- Summary based on Monday's discussion of Charter Question C (Registrant access to TDRP) The Working Group discussed at length the issue of whether or not to modify the TDRP to allow for a registrant-initiated TDRP. As part of these discussions, the Working Group has drawn up a number of scenarios, in which registrants have suffered an unwanted loss of control over a domain name and for which, in the Groups' opinion, the current TDRP does not provide adequate solutions. In addition, the Working Group has also consulted with ICANN Compliance to understand better the circumstances under which Compliance can and does act based on existing TDRP provisions. In summary, the Group agrees that, as long as there is just one registrant who has a complaint concerning an inter-registrar transfer (the kind of transfer that the policy was designed for) then the current TDRP rules are sufficient and provide adequate solutions - via ICANN Compliance and/or Dispute resolution providers. The issues and scenarios that the Group has found and discussed, however, lie outside the current scope of the TDRP, because these scenarios involve two or more registrants disputing an inter-registrant transfer. It is these circumstances that require new consensus policy. However, the Group feels that the drafting of such a policy goes beyond the scope of this group and in fact beyond the Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy that is the focus of this PDP. Therefore, the Working Group calls for an Issue Report with the view to creating an inter-registant transfer dispute policy. Recommendation #1 of the IRTP Part C Final Report that lays out the adoption of a change of registrant consensus policy could serve as a starting point for this undertaking.
