The policy concerns the processes that must be followed in transferring from one registrar to another - with this part of the WG concentrating on specific issues.  Alan and I have been on the working group and the issues involving registrants - what we have focussed on are as follows:

After a lot of discussion, this WG decided that it would be too complex and, because the current policy (if expanded to include registrants) would open registrants to risk since the existing TDRP processes are costly and the losing party pays.  The difficulty for registrants is that the TDRP process must be initiated by registrars - who may not want to take up a disputed transfer on behalf of the registrant.  What the WG decided, instead, was to provide better, more comprehensible information accessible to registrants on transfer processes - thus letting registrants who dispute a transfer understand if the transfer is against ICANN policies and processes, and then go to ICANN Compliance, having Compliance take action.  So recommendations in this report recommends that clear understandable information be on the ICANN webs site and that links to that information are on registrars and resellers websites. (the report is politely critical of what is on the ICANN website now).
