[NA-Discuss] Registry Failure Report Published / Comments Requested

[Danny Younger]

Dear Nick and Patrick,

STLD contracts (such as .travel) have the following
clause:

Section VIII.5 
Assignment and Subcontracting. 

"Any assignment of this Agreement shall be effective
only upon written agreement by the assignee with the
other party to assume the assigning party's
obligations under this Agreement. Moreover, neither
party may assign this Agreement without the prior
written approval of the other party, which shall not
be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, (i) Registry may assign this Agreement as
part of the transfer of its registry business if such
transfer and assignment are approved in advance by
ICANN in accordance with its procedures"

We have previously taken note of "assignment" being
used in .pro when Hostway replaced RegistryPro. 
What's not clear to me are the "procedures" referenced
above... are these available for review somewhere?  

I would think that the element of a "Sponsor" would
complicate matters somewhat... do the above procedures
tackle the sponsorship issue?

regards,
Danny
