Thick Whois IRT - AC room chat - 6 Sep 2016

  Dennis Chang: (9/6/2016 21:02) Welcome everyone to the Thick Whois IRT
  Marika Konings: (21:04) Has Dutch become the default language for these meetings? ;-)
  Marika Konings: (21:05) Correct!
  Theo Geurts: (21:05) that explains it :)
  steve metalitz: (21:20) Or MUST upon request?  
  Theo Geurts: (21:20) +1 Steve
  Alan Greenberg: (21:27) definitely a compliance issue, but the point I was making was that the need for a bulk import mechanism will probably not show up until much later in the time-line
  steve metalitz: (21:29) @Alan, agree with that point.
  Alan Greenberg: (21:30) ok
  Roger Carney: (21:35) @MArc, that seems like a good clarification
  Theo Geurts: (21:35) agreed
  steve metalitz: (21:37) Perhaps Registrar should be a defined term?  
  Alan Greenberg: (21:37) The policy EXPLICITLY only applies to "Registrars sponsoring domain name registrations in the .COM, .NET and .JOBS gTLDs."
  Theo Geurts: (21:37) +1 Alan
  Alan Greenberg: (21:37) It ALREADY says that.
  Alan Greenberg: (21:39) applicable is fine.
  Alan Greenberg: (21:40) Redefining a common term to mean something different can be problematic
  steve metalitz: (21:40) applicable is OK
  Alan Greenberg: (21:48) MOnthly would be fine for the first part of the period.
  Roger Carney: (21:50) +1 Monthly
  Francisco Arias: (21:50) 2.7.	Between 1 August 2017 and 1 Febrary 2019, Registry Operator SHALL provide Transition Progress Metrics to each registrar that consist of data that reflects the state of the registry as of 00:00:00 UTC every first day of the month by 23:59 UTC
  Rob Golding: (21:52) I have to drop off, but will listen to the MP3 for anything I miss :)
  Francisco Arias: (21:53) 2.7.	Between 1 August 2017 and 1 Febrary 2019, Registry Operator SHALL provide Transition Progress Metrics to each registrar that consist of data that reflects the state of the registry at the end of the month (UTC) every first day of the month by 23:59 UTC.
  Francisco Arias: (22:00) second proposal makes it consistent with other reporting requirements
  Jody Kolker: (22:01) +1 Alan.
  Jody Kolker: (22:02) If the report has a date on it, it will not matter if it was run 2 hours after or before midnight.
  steve metalitz: (22:02) Have to drop off here for another call as we are already past top of hour.  
  Dennis Chang: (22:04) Thanks everyone.  See you all next week
