2009<br><br>ICANN Board of Directors and Staff;<br><br>Attached are comments
from Connecting.nyc Inc. on the 2nd Draft Guidebook.<br><br>Our filing presents
comments in two areas. First, it reiterates and clarifies some of our first
round comments that we believe have not been adequately addressed. Second, it
adds a new comment / suggestion on the relationship between IDNs and city TLDs.
This addition reflects a need that was expressed to us over the past months in
our ongoing community ascertainment effort. We've not fully explored the
concept with the affected local communities but have included it here for
possible consideration as the Guidebook Development Process
continues.<br><br>Regards,<br><br>Thomas Lowenhaupt, Director<br>Connecting.nyc
