Advisory Board Supports Changes to ICANN Agreement
Posted: Tuesday, February 05, 2008

RegistryPro’s Advisory Board has issued a statement supporting several proposed modifications to our agreement with ICANN. The complete proposal, which includes changes to dotPRO registration restrictions, new profession-specific second level domains, and a restructuring of the Board itself, was drafted by the registry over several months with guidance from ICANN and input from professionals throughout the world. It was approved by the RegistryPro Advisory Board in late January.

In his letter to ICANN, Board Chair Steven Wright wrote: “The Advisory Board discussed these and the other changes in the amendment package in two telephone conferences, in November and December 2007, with further discussion by email. A vote was held in January 2008, and the proposal to support RegistryPro's proposed amendments was adopted without dissent.”

The proposal has been sent to ICANN for preliminary review and staff comment.

不過這種事好像在賭一把的感覺
不是很實際.

尚未解除 "限制";

不過, ICANN 目前正審慎評估 並對於 registrypro 所提的幾個建議
執行 30天的公眾評論期 觀察; 在此之後才會做決議.

所以這30天的公眾評論期 掌握.pro的未來囉?!
那麼是否意謂若這評論期過後就雨過天晴或黯然失色?
還是會有一波波的轉折?
必竟這後綴真的蠻吸引人的!
但礙於妻妾身份未明,倘若真的可以開放,那麼真是太美美囉!!

Proposed Contract Amendments from RegistryPro Posted for Public Comment

14 March 2008

ICANN has received a proposal from RegistryPro, operator for the .PRO top-level domain, requesting a set of changes to the .PRO registry agreement. These changes are being posted for public comment prior to consideration by the ICANN Board of Directors. .PRO is a restricted TLD, currently available for registration by credentialed professionals and related entities.

Current Requirements for Registering .PRO Names
In accordance with the current .PRO Registry Agreement between ICANN and RegistryPro, eligible registrants may register .PRO domain names consistent with the following parameters:

Third-level registrations are currently available under profession-specific second-level domains (e.g., med.pro). Currently available profession-specific second-level domains (PS-SLDs) are med.pro, law.pro, cpa.pro, eng.pro, and ing.pro. An authentication and verification process confirms that the registrant meets the eligibility requirements for the specific PS-SLD (for example, verifying that a registrant under med.pro is a licensed medical professional). An example of this type of registration would be <smith.med.pro>.
Second-level registrations with a redirect to a third-level registration are currently available to registrants who meet the eligibility requirements for one of the PS-SLDs above. For example, a registrant might register a the name <smith.pro>, which would redirect to <smith.med.pro>.
Second-level registrations are currently available under .PRO in the case where a registrant provides multiple professional services and meets eligibility requirements for two or more PD-SLDs. An example of this type of registration would be <smithconsulting.pro>, if Smith Consulting employs both lawyers and accountants.
Proposed Requirements for Registering .PRO Names
The contract amendments proposed by RegistryPro would enable the registry to allow registrations in .PRO according to the following parameters:

Third-level registrations under PS-SLDs (e.g., med.pro) would continue to be available. However, the list of PS-SLDs offered would be expanded to include additional professions.
Second-level registrations would be available to professionals who either: a) meet the eligibility requirements for any of the PS-SLDs, or b) are licensed by, and in good standing with, a jurisdictional licensing entity recognized by a governmental body and requiring its members to be continuously licensed or admitted to such body or entity as a prerequisite to providing the relevant professional service. A redirect to a corresponding third-level name would not be required.
Second-level registrations would continue to be available under .PRO in the case where a registrant provides multiple professional services and meets eligibility requirements for two or more profession-specific second-level domains.
When registering a .PRO domain name, all registrants would be required to agree to abide by the specified Terms of Use, and to re-sign the Terms of Use annually. Current .PRO registrants would also be required to agree to the Terms of Use upon renewal.
Side-by-Side Comparison of Registration Requirements
Current: Proposed:


2nd Level (e.g., smith.pro)
3rd Level (e.g., smith.med.pro)

Entities meeting the eligibility requirements for two or more PS-SLDs
Credentialed professionals in the medical, law, accounting, and engineering professions

Credentialed professionals in the medical, law, accounting, and engineering fields (names must redirect to a third-level name)

2nd Level (e.g., smith.pro)
3rd Level (e.g., smith.pro)

Any credentialed professional who agrees to Terms of Use
Credentialed professionals in any PS-SLD-designated professions

Entities meeting the eligibility requirements for two or more professions



Additional Background on RegistryPro Request
After some preliminary discussions with ICANN staff, RegistryPro submitted to ICANN on 12 March 2008 a formal request to amend its Registry Agreement to allow it to offer expanded types of domain registrations.

The request included:

1. Outreach letter describing the purpose of and proposed changes to registry agreement. [PDF, 17K]
2. A redlined Appendix L incorporating changes to the naming conventions and registration requirements as summarized above. [PDF, 157K]
3. A redlined Appendix F (Registry-Registrar Agreement) including the proposed Terms of Use provisions. [PDF, 153K]

Public Comment Requested

Public comment is being solicited on the proposed changes. Comments may be submitted to rproproposal@icann.org by 10 April 2008. Comments may be viewed at http://forum.icann.org/lists/rproproposal.

.Pro Update

The dot-pro public comment period is over and RegistryPro and ICANN have received overwhelming support for their proposed changes to the dot-pro registry.


The next step is for the ICANN Board to review the proposed contract changes at its April 29 Special Board Meeting.
