Summary
Board approved .INFO Registry Agreement amendments regarding non-compliant sunrise names.
Text
Whereas, Afilias has submitted a request pursuant to ICANN's Registry Services
Evaluation Policy to amend the dot-info Registry Agreement to permit a phased equitable re-allocation program for approximately 1,400 dot-info domain names determined by WIPO to have been obtained in conflict with the dot-info Sunrise Rules.
Whereas, ICANN has evaluated the proposed amendments to the dot-info 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 amendments grant a limited exception to price caps for Afilias to reallocate names in the non-compliant group via RFP or auction mechanisms.
