Re: Process forward [RE: [gnso-idng] restarting discussions on IDN gTLD]

[Avri Doria <avri@xxxxxxx>]

Hi,

My main question would be, what gets the gTLD fast track beyond the  
criticisms that are being used to stall gTLDs in general.
Other questions (perhaps subquestions of the question above):

- would it be for IDN gTLDs only
- would it be only for existing gTLD registries
- would applicants have to accept the most stringent of the  
restrictions being proposed by for new gTLDs (full IRT, no Geo related  
name of any sort, no word that anyone on earth considers  
controversial, nothing that has the same meaning or etymology as any  
exsiting TLD ...)
How would this fasttrack combine with the EoI proposed process?

I am not against this, but I am not sure I see how it would help.

a.
