LOS ANGELES – 17 April 2019 – The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names
and Numbers (ICANN) is seeking participants for the Name Collision Analysis
Project (NCAP) discussion group.

The NCAP discussion group, as defined by
the Security and Stability Advisory Committee (SSAC) proposal and revised
by ICANN's Office of the CTO, is an open and public group tasked with
discussing issues pertaining to the work of the NCAP Study 1.

The NCAP Study 1 was authorized by the ICANN Board of Directors on 14 March
2019. The study will:

·         examine all prior work on the issue of name collisions and
produce a summary report that brings forward important knowledge from prior
work into this study, and which can act as a primer for those new to the
subject.

·         create a list of data sets used in past studies, identify gaps,
if any, and list additional data that would be required to successfully
complete Studies 2 and 3.

·         decide if the project should proceed based on the results of the
survey of prior work and the availability of data.

There are two ways to participate in the NCAP discussion group:

·         *Individual participants* – Participants are expected to actively
contribute to mailing list conversations as well as meetings. Each
potential participant will be required to provide a Statement of Interest
(SOI) before gaining posting rights to the mailing list. It is anticipated
that participants will provide essential input to the process.

·         *Mailing list observers* – The position of observer is for those
only interested in monitoring the NCAP discussions. Observers are offered
read-only access to the mailing list. At any point in time, a mailing list
observer can join the NCAP discussion group as a participant simply by
submitting a SOI.

To operate in a transparent manner, all mailing list exchanges are publicly
archived <https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/ncap-discuss/>. All participants
are responsible for abiding by ICANN's Expected Standards for Behavior
<https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/expected-standards-2012-05-15-en>.

*To join the Name Collision Analysis Project discussion group,* please fill
out the following questionnaire

About ICANN

ICANN's mission is to help ensure a stable, secure, and unified global
Internet. To reach another person on the Internet, you need to type an
address – a name or a number – into your computer or other device. That
address must be unique so computers know where to find each
other. ICANN helps coordinate and support these unique identifiers across
the world. ICANN was formed in 1998 as a not-for-profit public-benefit
corporation with a community of participants from all over the world.
