The Registries Stakeholder Group (also Registry Stakeholder Group, RySG, or gTLD Registries Stakeholder Group) is a Stakeholder Group within the Contracted Parties House under ICANN's GNSO. It represents the interests of the gTLD Registries currently under the contract with ICANN and provides them with gTLD Registry Services. It also facilitates communication among the gTLD Registries and puts forward the views of the Registry Constituency to the GNSO Council and the ICANN Board of Directors, with a special emphasis on ICANN consensus policies, which relate to the technical reliability, interoperability and the stable operation of the Internet or DNS.[1]

Organization and Membership of the RySG

The membership of the RySG is open to all the Registries. Registries must apply for membership via the application process. Every Registry needs to identify a Voting Delegate and, if desired, alternate Voting Delegates.

Funding

Funding for the RySG is provided by its members. Every member joining the Group needs to pay an initial membership fee as well as a fixed annual membership fee and a variable annual membership fee as per the schedule of the RySG. A member loses its voting rights if it fails to pay the fees as previously invoiced within thirty days after a written notice of non-payment.[2]

Structure of the RySG

Executive Committee

The RySG consists of an Executive Committee, which is comprised of a Chair, an Alternate Chair, and a Treasurer. The main responsibilities of the Executive Committee are to facilitate policy coordination meetings, to support the GNSO Council and the ICANN Board, as requested by ICANN, and to manage and administer elections.

GNSO Representatives

The following individials represent the Registry Constituency and its views within the larger Generic Name Supporting Organization:

Registrars Stakeholder Group (RrSG) Constituency Liaison

ICANN Nominating Committee Representative

Interest Groups

For the sake of collaborating on vital issues of common interest within the RySG, members self-organize themselves into different Interest Groups. The main responsibilities of these specific Interest Groups is to nominate candidates for GNSO Council Representatives, participate in the GNSO policy development processes, and develop position statements with special emphasis on the ICANN consensus policies.

The current/active Interest Groups and their members are:

Affirmation of Commitments (AoC)

Anti-Phishing Work Group

Fake Renewal Notices Drafting Team

Fast Flux Working Group

ICANN Academy Working Group

IDN

Internationalized Registration Data Work Group

Inter-Registrar Transfers Policy Working Group

Lock of Domain Name Subject to UDRP PDP Working Group

Post Expiration Domain Name Recovery (PEDNR) Implementation Review Team

RAA Amendments Drafting Team

Registrar Accreditation Agreement Onboarding Inprovements Working Group

Registries Communication Practices Working Group

Registry Constituency

Prior to the GNSO restructuring, the Registry Stakeholder Group was known as the Registry Constituency. It was comprised of the registry operators for the .net, .org, .name, .com, .pro, .museum, .aero, .coop and .info gTLDs, which were the only TLDs at the time.[5]
