Subject: [ALAC] Request for an Issues Report on the recovery of expired
domain names

At its October 14th teleconference, the ALAC voted to request an 
Issues Report on the subject of registrants being able to recover 
domain names after their formal expiration date. Details can be found 
at 
https://st.icann.org/alac/index.cgi?recovery_of_expired_domain_names. 
An Issues Report is the first step in a possible Policy Development Process.

The motion calls for the draft request to be revised before and at 
the Cairo ICANN meeting. A number of people have already volunteered 
to work on the initial effort, and unless I hear otherwise, will 
assume that they will continue to do so (I will verify).

The ALAC formed a small Working Group. According to the motion "The 
working group may include representatives from At-Large, GNSO 
constituencies and other interested individuals but due to tight time 
constraints, will be limited to those with specific knowledge of the 
subject being discussed." If anyone else would like to participate, 
please let me know.

I am also formally calling for statements of support for this 
initiatives from ALSs and RALOs. Statements need not be long.

Lastly, if people can send me concise descriptions of situations 
where a domain name had inadvertently been allowed to expire, telling 
what happened, that would be very useful.

Regards, Alan
