> Call for Volunteers: Policy Development Process (PDP) Working Group  
> Members - Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy (IRTP) Part D
>
> In Brief
> The Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) Council seeks  
> volunteers to serve on a Working Group that will address issues  
> related to the transfer of domain names between registrars. After  
> investigating and considering specific issues (detailed below), the  
> Working Group is expected to recommend how to handle these issues,  
> which could include proposals for changes to the existing Inter- 
> Registrar Transfer Policy (a consensus policy adopted in 2004).
>
>
> What This Group Will Do
> The initial tasks of the group will be to consider the following  
> six questions[1] and make relevant recommendations to the GNSO  
> Council:
>
> a)      Whether reporting requirements for registries and dispute  
> providers should be
> developed, in order to make precedent and trend information  
> available to the
> community and allow reference to past cases in dispute submissions;
>
> b)      Whether additional provisions should be included in the  
> TDRP (Transfer Dispute Resolution Policy) on how to handle disputes  
> when multiple transfers have
> occurred;
>
> c)      Whether dispute options for registrants should be developed  
> and implemented as
> part of the policy (registrants currently depend on registrars to  
> initiate a dispute on
> their behalf);
>
> d)      Whether requirements or best practices should be put into  
> place for registrars to make information on transfer dispute  
> resolution options available to registrants;
>
> e)      Whether existing penalties for policy violations are  
> sufficient or if additional provisions/penalties for specific  
> violations should be added into the policy;
>
> f)       Whether the universal adoption and implementation of EPP  
> AuthInfo codes has eliminated the need of FOAs.
>
> How This Group Will Work
> ICANN Working Groups use transparent, open processes. The meetings  
> of this WG will be recorded, and the recordings will be available  
> to the public. The mailing list for the IRTP Part D WG will be  
> archived publicly. Working Group members are expected to submit  
> Statements of Interest (SOI). The group will collaborate using a  
> public workspace. The Working Group is expected to follow the GNSO  
> Working Group Guidelines.
>
> How to Join
> The Council invites interested parties to provide names of expected  
> participants who can then be added to the WG mailing list. The GNSO  
> Council may also invite stakeholders and experts to join.  
> Participants in the Working Group that addressed IRTP Part C are  
> especially encouraged to apply. Community members who wish to be  
> invited to join the group should contact the GNSO secretariat  
> (gnso.secretariat at icann.org). This WG is already forming; please  
> apply promptly.
> Background
> The Inter‐Registrar Transfer Policy (IRTP) is a consensus policy  
> adopted in 2004 to provide a straightforward procedure for domain  
> name holders to transfer domain names between registrars. An  
> overall review of this policy identified areas that require  
> clarification or improvement. At its meeting on 17 January 2013,  
> the Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) Council passed a  
> resolution chartering a Policy Development Process (PDP) Working  
> Group (WG) to address the topic of Inter-Registrar Transfer  
> Policies (IRTP) Part D. Because the initial review identified a  
> wide range of issues related to transferring domain names, the  
> issues have been categorized into subsets. This Working Group will  
> tackle the issues referred to as “Part D”.
