Interested in people's viewpoints on this,
I think it is a grey area as to whether running a registry could be part of AUDA's functions (i.e. not clearly unconstitutional).
One thing that concerns me about this proposal is what is the outcome if this gets the "yes" vote, and then the special resolution get's voted down as well? If I had to choose between two bad outcomes, the existing registry operator continuing, or AUDA operating it I’d choose the 2nd bad outcome.
What is a good outcome? Verisign operating it? Someone else?
That auDA is not a wholesale registry as defined by its OBJECTS and Principal Purposes under (3) of the auDA Constitution. If auDA wishes to change its purposes, objects or scope, then it must first put a special resolution to its Members by virtue of (16.3.d) of the Constitution.
