Dear Sir or Madam:

gTLDs.

Title:    New gTLDs and Mitigating Malicious Conduct

When:  Tuesday, September 29, 2009

Time:   15:00 - 16:00 UTC

 Brief Session Description:
ICANN is proposing several important measures to mitigate potential malicious 
conduct in the New gTLD Program. These measures can be found in version 3 of 
the Draft Applicant Guidebook scheduled for posting prior to the ICANN Seoul 
Meeting.  This webinar will provide a description of those measures and an 
opportunity for Q&A.  The duration of the webinar is one hour and will be 
conducted in English only at this time. The format will be presented in 
PowerPoint along with dial-in conference bridge for audio.

We will have time at the end of the session for Q&A.  During the course of the 
webinar, questions may be submitted using the Q&A function of Adobe Connect. 
Should we run out of time or if you have additional questions after the 
session, please send them via email to 
securitywebinar@xxxxxxxxx<mailto:securitywebinar@xxxxxxxxx> no later then 
October 9, 2009 23:59 UTC. You may also choose to submit your questions via the 
Overarching Issues Wiki at https://st.icann.org/new-gtld-overarching-issues/. 
Please note there will be no personal e-mail response to senders. All questions 
and answers received, as well as the audio recording of the session, will be 
posted early November at the New gTLD's Overarching Issues Wiki.
