[Bruna Martins dos Santos (via governance Mailing List)]

Dear all,

As promised, here follows some links about the PIR sell case.

Just as mentioned yesterday at the meeting and also present at some of the
above posted links, theres an interpretation that ICANN could still
intervened in such deal based on the article 7.5 of the registry base
agreement
<https://newgtlds.icann.org/sites/default/files/agreements/agreement-approved-31jul17-en.pdf>
signed
with ICANN.

I know that there has been a few statements on this subject and I believe
the Non-commercial Stakeholders Group at icann was considering issuing a
new one, but thats still something IGC can do if we achieve consensus.

I promise to follow up with some more links and points on this subject.

Best,
Bruna Santos
