Dear IRT,
Pease review
the Implementation Note added to make clear that the Billing
Contact requirement has been removed by the Registration
Data Policy.
Those of us
being involved in the long discussions at the IRT and GNSO
know what this is and how it happened but it’s important
that we document the change clearly for all readers of the
policy for implementation and compliance.
There is
another IRT task coming for you to review the updated Data
Escrow Specification that will identify the exact changes to
the specification. The Data Escrow Service providers and
Registrars will use this for consistent escrow processing.
Finally,
when we release the official updates, we will send out
notices to all Contracted Parties and Escrow Agents to keep
us all on the same page.
Thank you
for your continued support. 114 days till 21 August 2025.
Kind
Regards,
Dennis
Chang
Thanks,
Dennis!
I am
happy we could resolve this. Thanks to all of you!
Best,
Thomas
Dear
IRT,
Attached
is the GNSO letter informing us of their 10 April
2025 Resolution confirming that the Billing Contact
requirements in the Registrar Agreement have been
eliminated.
We
are working on required updates on our documents for
your review.
In
the letter, the GNSO Council further confirms and
commits that going forward, the PDP Working Group
Charters will specify that the Policy
Recommendations must explicitly and specifically
identify the intentions to modify the requirements
in RA, RAA, or other policies.
I
thank the IRT for being patient and diligent in the
resolution of the Billing Contact and more
importantly being the agent in policy development
process for everyone’s benefit.
Thank
You again to Thomas Rickert – GNSO Liaison - for
facilitating the multiple GNSO Council discussions
and successfully stewarding the motion.
