[registrars] Deletes Implementation Committee?

["Ross Wm. Rader" <ross@tucows.com>]

In the course of getting caught up with the comings and goings of the GNSO
Council, I came across the following snippet in the minutes of their April
17 meeting. What is the current status of this effort? Who is representing
registrar interests on this committee? How are they taking input? Are they
going to meet their deadlines?

Thanks in advance to anyone that can shed light on this effort.

Discussion highlighted the value of an implementation group being formed,
composed of Registrars, Registries, task force members and ICANN Staff which
would provide feedback to the task force. Taking into account the critical
nature of deleting a domain name, the process should be correct and the
possible timeframe considered for the report to be voted on by Council was
the June 2003 meeting in Montreal.
Bruce Tonkin seconded by Ken Stubbs, proposed:

·         That the Chair of the GNSO Council would liaise with the Chair of
the Deletes Task Force for the creation of an implementation group and the
implementation group would provide input to the Deletes Task Force.

·         The Deletes task force would have 2 weeks to assimilate the input
received and present the revised Final Report to be voted on by the Council.

Vote: Unanimous support of voting Council members
