Guidance is provided below for registrants who may be affected by<BR>> this action.<BR>> Frequently Asked Questions<BR>> <BR>> *Q. If I have domain names with a registrar that lost its accreditation,<BR>> will I lose my domain names?*<BR>> <BR>> A. No. Your registrar’s gTLD names will be transferred to another registrar,<BR>> as described below. Two-letter country-code (ccTLD) names, such as dot-in<BR>> and dot-us, are not affected by this process.<BR>> <BR>> *Q. Will I be charged for this process?*<BR>> <BR>> A. No, the transfer process itself is provided free of any charge to<BR>> registrants. You should note, however, that it will not change the current<BR>> expiration date of your domain name registration. After the bulk transfer<BR>> process is completed, you will be contacted by the registrar that receives<BR>> the terminated registrar’s domain names about your options.<BR>> <BR>> *Q. How long will it take ICANN to identify someone to receive the domain<BR>> names?*<BR>> <BR>> A. We expect to identify a qualified registrar to receive domain names<BR>> within 30 days; however, the process of identifying a qualified registrar<BR>> and completing the transfer of registration information may, on occasion,<BR>> take longer than expected. ICANN will post a notice on its website when a<BR>> qualified registrar has been identified.<BR>> <BR>> *Q. What do I need to do now?*<BR>> <BR>> A. You do not need to do anything right now. You will be contacted by the<BR>> company that receives the domain names registered through your registrar in<BR>> due course.<BR>> <BR>> *Q. What if I want to register my domain with a company other than the one<BR>> that is chosen for the bulk transfer?*<BR>> <BR>> A. You will be able to transfer your domain to a different registrar after<BR>> the bulk transfer, assuming that no other condition exists to support a<BR>> denial of the transfer.<BR>> <BR>> Please note that, the gaining registrar is allowed to deny transfers for the<BR>> first 60 days following the bulk transfer. If the gaining registrar allows,<BR>> you may move your domain in those first 60 days; otherwise, you will need to<BR>> wait 60 days before approaching a different registrar and requesting a<BR>> transfer. For more information on the transfer of a registration between<BR>> registrars, please see the Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy, at<BR>> http://www.icann.org/en/transfers/policy-en.htm.<BR>> <BR>> *Q. My domain name with my registrar was about to expire. How can I make<BR>> sure it does not get lost in the transfer?*<BR>> <BR>> A. If a registration is due to expire within the next 30 days, ICANN will<BR>> request that it be auto-renewed by the registry and maintained in its<BR>> auto-renew grace period.<BR>> <BR>> *Q. What if my domain name is registered by a Whois privacy or proxy<BR>> service?*<BR>> <BR>> A. If the privacy or proxy service is the registrant of record for your<BR>> domain name(s), you should ensure that the service forwards to you any<BR>> information it receives from the ICANN-accredited registrar selected to<BR>> receive the bulk transfer.<BR>> <BR>> *Q. What does it mean that my registrar’s accreditation agreement was<BR>> terminated?*<BR>> <BR>> A. Your registrar breached one or more provisions of its Registrar<BR>> Accreditation Agreement (RAA) and failed to cure the breach (es) within the<BR>> time period allowed by that contract. As a result, your registrar’s contract<BR>> with ICANN was terminated and it is no longer ICANN-accredited. This means<BR>> that your registrar will no longer be permitted to register generic<BR>> top-level domain names (such as dot-com and dot-org) or continue to manage<BR>> such registrations.<BR>> <BR>> *Q. How will the domain name transfer process work?*<BR>> <BR>> A. ICANN will follow the De-Accredited Registrar Transition Procedure<BR>> (posted at<BR>> http://www.icann.org/en/processes/registrars/de-accredited-registrar-transition-procedure-01oct08.pdf[PDF,<BR>> 119K]) which is intended to ensure a timely transition in the event of<BR>> the de-accreditation of a registrar.<BR>> <BR>> In summary, the De-Accredited Registrar Transition Procedure is initiated by<BR>> providing the de-accredited registrar an opportunity to propose a receiving<BR>> registrar at or about the same time ICANN posts a request for registrars to<BR>> submit expressions of interest if they wish to be considered as potential<BR>> recipients of a bulk transfer. Registrars are typically given one week to<BR>> submit their expressions of interest. ICANN considers several factors in<BR>> deciding whether to authorize a bulk transfer to the proposed registrar, and<BR>> the transfer can only be approved if it would promote the community<BR>> interest.<BR>> <BR>> If the de-accredited registrar fails to propose a receiving registrar or if<BR>> ICANN determines that the proposed transfer would not promote the community<BR>> interest, ICANN will review all submitted expressions of interest and invite<BR>> all qualified registrar-applicants to participate in a one-week negotiation<BR>> period. In the negotiation period, the registrar-applicants must submit<BR>> competitive proposals that will be scored on pre-determined, objective<BR>> criteria. The qualified registrar with the highest score will be selected to<BR>> receive the bulk transfer of names.<BR>> <BR>> Once the receiving registrar is selected, ICANN will provide it with<BR>> available registration data and notify the registries to effect the bulk<BR>> transfer after the data has been integrated into the receiving registrar’s<BR>> systems. The receiving registrar will then send notices to the affected<BR>> registrants, with instructions on how to begin managing names with the<BR>> receiving registrar.<BR>> <BR>> *Q. Will the chosen receiving registrar receive my registration data for my<BR>> domain names?*<BR>> <BR>> A. The registration data for the gTLD names formerly managed by your<BR>> registrar will be provided to the receiving registrar. This information will<BR>> allow the receiving registrar to contact all registrants and create customer<BR>> accounts for them so they may quickly begin managing their registrations. If<BR>> your name is registered by a Whois privacy or proxy service, the receiving<BR>> registrar will typically only receive the Whois privacy or proxy service<BR>> registrant information.<BR>> <BR>> *Q. What if my domain name was deleted before my registrar was<BR>> de-accredited, but I want it back?*<BR>> <BR>> A. If the name is available for registration, you may register it with your<BR>> preferred ICANN-accredited registrar (see<BR>> http://www.internic.net/regist.html).<BR>> <BR>> If the name has since been registered by someone else, you have at least<BR>> three options:<BR>> <BR>> 1. Work out an agreement with the current registrant.<BR>> 2. Wait to see if the current registrant lets the domain name expire.<BR>> 3. If you believe the domain name is identical or confusingly similar to<BR>> a trademark or service mark in which you have rights, and the current<BR>> registrant has registered and is using the name in bad faith (and has no<BR>> rights or legitimate interests in the name), you can begin an administrative<BR>> proceeding under the Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy (UDRP).<BR>> (Note: this is a narrow category, so you should proceed with caution.) For<BR>> more details on this option, including a list of dispute resolution service<BR>> providers, please see http://www.icann.org/en/udrp/udrp.htm.<BR>> <BR>> Please note that the UDRP applies only to domain names in generic top-level<BR>> domains (such as dot-com and dot-net). Dispute resolution policies vary in<BR>> other TLDs such as dot-in, dot-uk and the 240+ other country code top-level<BR>> domains. You may wish to seek legal advice to determine if the UDRP is<BR>> applicable to your situation, or to assist in identifying additional<BR>> alternatives.<BR>> <BR>> *Q. I have read everything above but I still have some questions. Whom<BR>> should I contact?*<BR>> <BR>> A. The receiving registrar will contact you shortly after the bulk transfer<BR>> takes place. You should contact this registrar first with any issues. If you<BR>> are still not able to get an answer to your questions, you may contact<BR>> ICANN’s contractual compliance team at compliance@icann.org.<BR>> ------------------------------<BR>> <BR>> *Sign up for ICANN's Monthly Magazine <http://www.icann.org/en/magazine/>*<BR>> -------------- next part --------------<BR>> An HTML attachment was scrubbed...<BR>> URL: https://lists.afrinic.net/pipermail/africann/attachments/20100210/3ce9d6af/attachment.htm<BR>> <BR>> ------------------------------<BR>> <BR>> _______________________________________________<BR>> AfrICANN mailing list<BR>> AfrICANN@afrinic.net<BR>> https://lists.afrinic.net/mailman/listinfo.cgi/africann<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> End of AfrICANN Digest, Vol 36, Issue 8<BR>> ***************************************<BR>                                            <br /><hr />Hotmail : un service de messagerie gratuit, fiable et complet <a href='https://signup.live.com/signup.aspx?id=60969' target='_new'>Profitez-en</a></body>
