<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">We are
pleased to report that we received 72 applications
from individuals interested in serving on the next
review team under the Affirmation of Commitments (AoC)
that will examine the impact of new gTLDS in the areas
of competition, consumer trust and consumer choice
(CCT). Before final selection of the CCT Review Team
is completed by the ICANN CEO and the GAC Chair, we
are seeking endorsements from any SO/AC for those <a

there is no set allocation per SO/AC or per

size of the review team.
