Minds + Machines comments on GAC Safeguard Advice

[Antony Van Couvering <avc@xxxxxxxx>]

Dear ICANN New gTLD Board Committee,

Please find attached our comments on the GAC Advice with regard to safeguards 
for new gTLDs.   In sum, while we have pro-actively included the majority of 
these safeguards with respect to our own applications, we find that the advice 
from the GAC subverts the role of the GNSO in setting policy, is inconsistent 
with prior GAC advice, is too vague and open-ended, and threatens the 
multi-stakeholder model.  

Respectfully,

Antony Van Couvering
CEO, Minds + Machines
