I personally don't see any particular need for the Protocol Council to
comment on this.

To the Protocol Council:
Today ICANN posted on its web site
<http://www.icann.org/melbourne/proposed-verisign-agreements-topic.htm>
a proposal for revision of the registry agreement for the .com/net/.org
registry. Details of the proposal are explained in the topic paper at
the URL set forth above. One aspect of the proposal is to separate the
contractual arrangements for the three TLDs; the topic paper provides
links to proposed registry agreements for each of them.
The proposed revision will be discussed at the 12 March 2001 Public
Forum in Melbourne. The Board expects to consider the matter at
Melbourne, but to take action on this topic in the weeks after the
Melbourne meeting. In connection with the Board's consideration of
this revision, the Protocol Supporting Organiation is requested to
provide any comments and recommendations it chooses to offer.
Best regards,
Louis Touton
ICANN Secretary
