<br>
Who can we think of to server on the New gTLD Rules
Implementation <br>
Review Team - otherwise known as the SubPro IRT?? This is
the roll-out <br>
of the rules for New gTLD applications, review processes,
evaluations of <br>
special applications (like Community Priority Evaluation),
and more!<br>
<br>
Anyone who goes through this process will be one of the
world experts on <br>
New gTLD rules - and ready to help a lot of
people/groups/orgs with <br>
their applications when the next round opens.<br>
<br>
I was on the SubPro Working Group writing these
recommendations, but <br>
cannot be on the IRT. That said, I am happy to help
whoever(s) we choose!<br>
<br>
Best, Kathy<br>
