Dear At-Large participants,

the At-Large Advisory Committee is forming a working group about
possible proposals to strengthen protections for registrants in generic
top level domain names.

Specifically, in its initial phase, the working group will draft the At
Large's response to the consultation that ICANN will hold in the next
weeks, discussing the following issues:

1. Possible changes in the Registrar Accreditation Agreement - the
contract that establishes the relationships and reciprocal duties
between ICANN and registrars, and consequently registrants;

2. Possible improvements to other existing policies of ICANN that affect
registrants directly, such as, for example, the policies on transfering
domain names to another registrar;

3. Possible improvements in the process for the accreditation of
registrars by ICANN;

4. Possible operational projects by ICANN, for example in terms of
education and information of registrants, processes for receiving and
dealing with registrant complaints, instruments to enforce contractual
compliance.

The work will happen online. To participate, please subscribe to the
"RAA-WG" mailing list, by using the form at:

http://atlarge-lists.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/raa-wg_atlarge-lists.icann.org

Further information and archives of the list will be found there.

Please feel free to share this call with any person or group that might
be interested in contributing to this discussion from the point of view
of the average registrant of domain names.

Regards,
