This comment has the only purpose to clarify that the Board of ICANN has never approved the criterion to group the "dependent territories" as they are named in the current proposal, with their "mother countries" as they are also named in the proposal. I have checked in the ICANN's website and I can't find a formal document from the ICANN's staff with a statement in relation with this topic. The only reference that I found is a comment from Mr. Andrew McLaughlin during the Board's meeting in Yokohama, but after this comment the ICANN's board approved the following resolution:
Therefore, we can certainly say that ICANN has not approved in any time a resolution related with the grouping of the dependent territories in the sense that it is suggested in the antecedents of the current proposal. Due to the above comments, this proposal imply a very important change in the current definitions and there is not any justification in the resolution that is being proposed, for this "grouping" criterion. I think that if the ICANN Board is interested in promote this big change in the current definition, this change should have a good justification. Since the justification doesn't exist, it is not appropiate to approve the resolution that is being proposed, at least by now.
