[nc-transfer] WLS/deletes: Procedure for the addition of new registry services

[Thomas Roessler <roessler@does-not-exist.org>]

Another question which was touched at several points is the overall  
procedure for the addition of new services at the registry level.   
As is well-known, Verisign has been arguing that no policy is  
involved with WLS.  

Differing from this, the ICANN board has, so far, been following the 
procedure outlined by Mr. Touton in his analysis of the Verisign 
proposal.  This procedure has been described by George Kirikos in 
the following way: If the new service leads to a win-win situation, 
approve it expeditiously.  If the new service leads to a win-lose 
situation (like, as he said, WLS does), chose the more difficult 
avenue of a formal consensus process.

I do not seem to remember any alternative proposals.
