[registrars] SLA Task Force Extension

["Michael D. Palage" <mpalage@ipwarehouse.com>]

The 45 day period agreed upon in LA for adopting a mutually acceptable SLA
has been extended to January 14th to account for the holiday crunch which
has impeded the task force's mission. If one of the SLA Task Force members
could post to the list the latest version of the SLA ,it would be greatly
appreciated. The more input the better. I hope everyone is enjoying the
holiday season.

Dave and Mike,

ICANN has no objection to the extension of the 45-period for the SLA Working
Group as proposed in Mike Palage's e-mail.  As you note, Section 18 of the
Registry Agreement provides:  "The 45-day period shall be subject to
extension by mutual agreement of the members of the SLA Working Group."
Mike, please confirm that the extension proposed in your e-mail has the
support of the registrar members of the working group.
Mike, assuming it has this support, it might be a good idea for you to put
an announcement of the new schedule out to the registrar constituency list.
