<div>Dear All,</div><div><br></div><div>We should develop a constituency statement to submit to the newly forming working group on Post-Expiration Domain Name Recovery. We need volunteers to join this new working group and volunteer to take the lead in developing NCUC's position on this policy matter. Anyone can join and all are invited. In particular, anyone who has had difficulty recovering an expired domain name should please participate and help bring your experience to the policy development forum. The deadline for constituency statements to the new working group is 18 Sept. but we should begin to pull together volunteers to come up with a draft now. See the details below.</div><div><br></div><div>Please let me know if you'd like to volunteer to work on this issue. Thank you!</div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><div>Robin</div><div><br></div><div>---------------------------------------</div><div><br></div><div><!--StartFragment--><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align: none;text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri"><b>Constituency Input Template <o:p></o:p></b></span></p> <div style="border:none;border-bottom:solid windowtext .5pt;padding:0in 0in 1.0pt 0in"><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align: none;text-autospace:none;border:none;mso-border-bottom-alt:solid windowtext .5pt; padding:0in;mso-padding-alt:0in 0in 1.0pt 0in"><span style="font-size:11.0pt; font-family:Calibri"><b>Post-Expiration Domain Name Recovery Policy Development Process<o:p></o:p></b></span></p> </div><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align: none;text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri"> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align: none;text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri">PLEASE SUBMIT YOUR RESPONSE AT THE LATEST BY <b>FRIDAY 18 SEPTEMBER</b></span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri"> TO THE PEDNR WG (<a href="mailto:gnso-pednr-dt@icann.org">gnso-pednr-dt@icann.org</a>)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align: none;text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri"> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align: none;text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri">The GNSO Council has formed a Working Group of interested stakeholders and Constituency representatives, to collaborate broadly with knowledgeable individuals and organizations, in order to consider recommendations for best practices as well as or instead of recommendations for Consensus Policy to address a number of questions related to post-expiration domain name recovery.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align: none;text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri"> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align: none;text-autospace:none"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri">Part of the working group’s effort will be to incorporate ideas and suggestions gathered from Constituencies through this Constituency Statement.
