Volker, If the registrar is also supplying the DNS service and the registrant initiates a change of registrar, the existing registrar will stop providing the DNS service. Therefore, the registrant is forced to change DNS service as part of changing registrars. If the registrant also wishes for the DNS service to continue to work during the transition, some careful coordination between the two DNS operations is required.

I keep wondering what DNS settings and operations have to do with transfers in the first place. Surely the correct DNS settings are the responsibility of the registrant? Volker

Emily, et al,

I have added some words related to coordination of DNS operations during a change of registrar. I was not able to edit the document directly via Google docs, so I downloaded the document and inserted changes. Tracking is turned on. I inserted my suggested changes between "c" and "d" so I used the letter x.

I believe this belongs in this phase, 1a, because phase 1b looks like it's focused specifically on a change of registrant. The question of coordination of DNS operation could be relevant during a change of registrant but will be much more likely to be relevant during a change of registrar without a change of registrant.

Thanks,

Steve

Dear Working Group members,

*Tomorrow,** Thursday, 24 June is the last day to suggest edits to the outreach letter *to SO/AC/SG/Cs: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1MsaU6sc3TU3azo2-pCWW9A6GWJ0a7XzT/view?usp=s... [drive.google.com] <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/drive.google.com/file/d/1MsaU6sc3TU3azo2-...>

As a point of clarification, the current task is to make sure that the text of the letter is acceptable and determine if any additional questions need to be asked of SO/AC/SG/Cs as part of this request for input beyond the listed charter questions. Once the WG has finalized the letter, it will be sent to SO/AC/SG/Cs who will have approximately five weeks to respond. Please feel free to reach out with any questions.

Kind regards,

Emily, Julie, Caitlin, and Berry
