RE: [soac-newgtldapsup-wg] First JAS WG call - follow-up

Rafik,

 

You said the issue of « application fees » is not under the scope of this
working group.  

 

As per the Board resolution, we are asked to develop a sustainable approach
to providing support to new gTLD applicants requiring assistance in applying
for and operating new gTLDS. One of the possible ways to provide support to
apply for a new gTLD is to reduce the application fees. 

 

I do think that rejecting the issue that way is not constructive.

Hello Everyone,

 

we have Avri and Evan nominated as co-chairs and you can nominate someone or
yourself till tomorrow confcall and the we can appoint the co-chairs.

 

Regarding discussion about WG objectives, it will be helpful to propose
concrete rewording. the best will be to approve the charter tomorrow too and
then ALAC and GNSO council to approve it too .

about the applications fees, I think that will be the most polemic part and
I am not sure that is under the scope of our WG. We had a long discussion
within GNSO council about that specific point:

"Resolved, that the GNSO Council supports the formation of a joint SO/AC
working group to respond to the Board’s request by developing a sustainable
approach to providing support to new gTLD applicants requiring assistance in
applying for and operating new gTLDS, keeping in mind the GNSO
Implementation guideline to recover the cost of new gTLD applications and
on-going services to new gTLDs, and the goal of not creating further delays
to the new gTLD process;"

 

Regards

 

Rafik

Dear all,

Action items from our call today:

 

1.       If you haven’t filed a Statement of Interest with Glen, please do
so (see separate mail from Glen on this) 

2.       Volunteers (and/or nominations) sought for chair(s) or co-chairs
for the WG, to be appointed at a future meeting. Please consider this and
send an email to the list if interested.

3.       The draft WG charter distributed earlier is now also available for
editing on the Wiki – it generated much discussion (on focus, sequence,
priorities, language…) and the conclusion was to continue on the list and on
the Wiki to get it agreed by the end of next week. The Wiki is at
https://st.icann.org/so-ac-new-gtld-wg/ .

4.       It was resolved to have 1.5 hour weekly calls, starting next week.
A Doodle poll will be set up to find the most suitable time – expect a
separate mail on that.

 

Very best regards

Olof
