And his temporay replacement is in Sydney not L.A., with her own backlog of issues.

When I met him in Brussels, he seemed fully engaged.
Given the importance of the compliance issue at ICANN, both for current TLDs and the new ones, it would be helpful if ICANN could provide the community with an explanation. I notice that, several days later, a replacement hasn't been named. That's a potentially dangerous vacuum.

Agreed, which is why I see his departure as serious setback. I'll have an update on some of these issues shorty.

......just on the verifiable information, this appears to be dissolute behaviour, all round.
One wonders if actions such as this may have hastened the exit of the head guy in ICANN Compliance. When you look below the PC 'corporate speak', he always seemed like a really conscientious guy to me.....

Hello all,
To my chagrin I just read that that A Technology Company's termination was reversed and their accreditation renewed under the new 2009 RAA. (http://www.icann.org/en/compliance/#updates):
"13 July 2010: A Technology Company, Inc. cured all outstanding contract breaches as of 30 June 2010. A Technology Company, Inc.'s accreditation was renewed on 13 July 2010."
I'm very confused by this for two specific reasons:
1. A Technology Company does not post their mailing address on their website as required by the 2009 RAA in section 3.16
The address is not on their home page, contact us, FAQ, company info, about us, or in any of their agreement or legal documents.
AND
2. They have been manipulating their own WHOIS record in the web and Port 43.
Trying to get the record returns one of these statements:
"Sorry, Domainname does not exists in our DB" - From A Technology Company own web WHOIS at https://www.namesystem.com/website/whois.jsp
From Port 43: "Checking server [whois.namesystem.com] Results: Sorry, Domain does not exist in the null system."
However, "NameSystem" is the Registrar for "namesystem.com", see http://reports.internic.net/cgi/whois?whois_nic=namesystem.com&type=domain , which means what? They are manipulating the search.
A Technology Company has deeply obfuscated themselves. Even the Better Business Bureau says "Company Cannot Be Located" when trying to resolve consumer disputes!
This case would make it seem that as long as a Registrar pays the bills, everything else is permissible.
I'm shocked.

They must have paid off their outstanding biils. The loss of accreditation was for not paying their bills, not for any other failure under the RAA. This offers up evidence for what ICANN believes is important: money, not good behavior. It's very sad.
