John, Evan, and all, "Everyone", which in the NARALO is a paltry few already spoke before the mis-communicated ALAC motion was submitted. So I can only guess that someone is not reading their Email fully. The consensus, although unmeasured, was actually that the AGP needed to go and/or be eliminated. INEGroup's members had determined a more reasoned and practical solution that would allow for the AGP to remain, but eliminate Domain Name Tasting, not limit it. That solution is short, would require registrars to modify their registration software to only allow for 10 registrations/month per registrant, and if any were requested to be dropped during the AGP, those registrants would be banned from registering any domains for a set period of time or only allowed to register one Domain name per month for a period no less than one month and no more than two years. If that same registrant a second time registered domain names in any name space and again let any of them drop during the AGP he/she/it would be banned for a period of one year from registering any domain names. If that same registrant or registrar a third time registered any number of domain names in any name space and again let any of them drop or be placed in a "Parking status" would be banned permanently from ever registering any Domain names indefinitely AND the registrar or registrars involved would have their Accreditation revoked for a period of no less than 30 days and possibly indefinitely and would release all domain names in those name spaces to the pool for re-registration immediately. The ICANN staff itself would be responsible for oversight and compliance of this policy and report all incidents publicly for the publics review and notice. All or any of the ICANN staff members assigned to doing said oversight that failed to do it's duty accordingly would be subject to retraining in good customer relations at ICANN's and the registrars associated expense or be summarily and immediately dismissed. -----Original Message-----

What says everyone? Do we make a statement as NARALO, or leave the GNSO doc to go to the board without comment?
Assuming the members of the NARALO still feel that the AGP would go, I think we owe the GNSO a comment.
