| SSAC Comment on the ICANN gTLD Registry Transition Processes Model (R7) | SAC047 | CLOSED |
Description:
The SSAC makes the following recommendations regarding the construction of the Explanatory Memorandum:
- It should be footnoted with references to the Applicant Guidebook.
- It should reference and use defined terms from the Applicant Guidebook rather than crafting its own definitions.
- It imposes requirements on various parties, but it is unclear if these have the stature of requirements stated in the Applicant Guidebook. Since its function is to be explanatory, the text should truly be explanatory as opposed to normative.
