Text
Staff provided the Board with an update on information requested at the prior Board meeting regarding the proposed contractual amendment.
The Board then took the following action:
Whereas, NeuStar has submitted a request pursuant to ICANN's Registry Services Evaluation Policy to amend the .BIZ Registry Agreement to permit a phased allocation program for single and two-character domain names.
Whereas, the proposed release of single and two-character domain names in .BIZ would be consistent with the recommendations of the GNSO Reserved Names Working Group and other approvals to permit the release of single and two-character domain names.
Whereas, ICANN has evaluated the proposed amendments to the .BIZ Registry Agreement as new registry services pursuant to the Registry Services Evaluation Policy and has posted amendments for public comment and Board approval (http://www.icann.org/registries/rsep/).
Whereas, the amendment grants a limited exception to price caps for the RFP or auction of single and two-character domain names in .BIZ.
It is hereby resolved (2009-05-21-07) that the .BIZ amendments are approved, and the President and General Counsel are authorized to take such actions as appropriate to implement the amendments.
All Board Members present unanimously approved this resolution.
