OUTLINE OF VOTING PLAN  BASED ON TF RECOMMENDATIONS

TR-TR Preferred Recommendation:
I. Recommendation to deny the WLS:

A. The ICANN board move with all haste to implement and actively enforce the
proposed Redemptions Grace Period for Deleted Names policy and practice
Yes
No
Abstain

B. The ICANN Board reject Verisign's request to amend its agreement to
enable it to introduce its proposed WLS.
Yes
No
Abstain


C. The ICANN Board reject Verisign's request to trial the WLS for 12 months.
Yes
No
Abstain

I. Recommendation to deny the WLS:
Yes
No
Abstain


II. Should the ICANN board not accept the policy recommendations noted above
and grant Verisign's request for a change to its agreement and a 12 month
trial of its WLS, we would alternatively recommend that WLS be approved with
conditions:

A. The introduction of WLS is dependent on the implementation and proven
(for not less than three months) practice envisaged in the proposed
Redemption Grace Period for Deleted Names policy and practice and the
establishment of a standard deletion period.
Yes
No
Abstain

B. The TF recommends that any interim Grace Period have all the
characteristics and conditions of the Redemption Grace Period now in
implementation.
Yes
No
Abstain

C. Several Constituencies remain concerned that a standard deletion period
be established and implemented. Some TF members believe that this could be
considered separately from WLS.

1) Standard Deletions should be established at same time as WLS and
implemented before WLS.
Yes
No
Abstain

2) Standard deletions should be established, but need not be in place before
WLS is implemented.
Yes
No
Abstain

3) Standard deletions should be considered separately.
Yes
NO
Abstain

D. The WLS include a requirement that notice be provided by the Registry
(through the registrar) to the existing registrant of a domain name when a
WLS option is taken out against that registrant's domain name. {Notice}
Yes
No
Abstain

E. The WLS include a requirement for full transparency as to who has placed
a WLS option on a domain name and the registrar that actions the option.
{Transparency}
Yes
No
Abstain

F. Based on the above two points (notice and transparency), the price for
the WLS be set at the same amount as the current registry fee for a
registration - the cost of the WLS function being no more, an probably less,
than a registration - plus any additional costs to "notice and
transparency', based on Verisign's provision of such validating information
on such costs to the Board/Staff.

Yes
No
Abstain
