All
While the various stakeholder groups might include this in their own comments I thought it worthwhile raising this topic here as well.
As we all know there currently is a large and active PDP on Subsequent Rounds of new TLDs.
However as was raised with me the budget does not seem to fully reflect this ie. no monies appear to have been earmarked should that PDP reach its conclusion and a next round be announced.
Jeff Neuman shared the below with me and others and I am sharing it here with his permission:
"there is nothing in the next ICANN proposed budget that accounts for development or resources towards the next round of New gTLDs. If we want the “next round” to begin in 2020, then surely the FY 2019 Budget which contains the initiatives for ICANN from July 2018 through June 2019 MUST contain some funds to start the prep work. In fact, for the 2012 Round, the budgeting for that round began in FY 2008. The reason it began in FY 2008 (prepared during FY 2007) is because it was originally assumed that that the opening of the round would be in FY 2010 (or late 2009). That was the assumption because they knew they would get the GNSO’s final report in at the end of FY 2008. See <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://www.icann.org/resources/unthemed-pages/adopted-budget-2007-06-29-en#_Toc170817093">https://www.icann.org/resources/unthemed-pages/adopted-budget-2007-06-29-en#_Toc170817093</a>. "
Jeff indicates that the PDP would probably be done before the end of FY19 so the lack of budgeted resources naturally concerns him.
