ICANN is supposed top be "coordinating technical functions"; it seems to me inviting proposals for new tld registries can have the potential effect of running roughshod over all the work that has gone on in the last four or five years by people and organizations that have deployed testbed gTLD registries. If ICANN is really serious about coordinating technical functions wouldn't it make more sense to clear up the backlog of gTLD applications that go all the way back to the original TLD requests made of Jon Postel and THEN talk about soliciting proposals from other interested parties?       

These might be good starting points:
