[Ec-ncuc] NCUC letter to the GAC, RE UDRP

[Konstantinos Komaitis]

At this stage, I would prefer if we were to send a polite letter to the GAC instead of cutting bridges before we even started our dialogue with them.I could cut it shorter and insist on the point of the GAC has consulted with the IPC only ? my understanding is that the Ry's and Rr's have not been consulted on this letter ? am I wrong?

Subject: RE: NCUC letter to the GAC, RE UDRP

I think the letter is too polite, too generic and too long. I think it should say, more simply, that the GAC does not seem to have consulted with stakeholders holding different viewpoints about the UDRP and so we are sending it our views.

Dear all,
I've drafted a cover letter to send to the GAC in relation to the UDRP,
attaching at the end NCUC's comments during the public period. Given the
time pressure to send this out to the GAC before the Dakar meeting, I
don't think there is time for the whole list to review it. I am asking
therefore the NCUC EC to tell me whether they agree on sending this to
the GAC. As you may know, the GAC sent a statement to the GNSO
requesting that the UDRP should not be reviewed; this statement was
drafted by the IPC so we need to respond.
Please edit and/or make any additions that you feel are necessary. I
would like to send this to Heather by the end of the week so they can
read it before the GNSO meet with them in Dakar.
Many thanks
KK
