In advance of the Costa Rica meeting, ICANN and the Registrar Negotiation Team have prepared a summary of the negotiations on the Registrar Accreditation Agreement (RAA).
After the Board directed ICANN and the Registrars to proceed into negotiations regarding recommendations by law enforcement and recommendations from the GNSO, negotiations proceeded at a brisk pace, with 13 negotiation sessions held to date. There are many topics where ICANN and the Registrar Negotiation Team are close to agreement on language, and even more topics where there is agreement in principle. Because of the comprehensive nature of the amendments, it is expected that all negotiated language will be posted as a unified document after further negotiation.
The summary chart released today provides information on nearly all of the items that have been raised in the negotiations, and the current status of agreement on those issues.
