All good! Adding Pedro's #5, key work in preparation for the UDRP
Review and Charter for the upcoming policy development process will take
place in 2025 -- the first time in 25 years that the ICANN Community
will review this very first "consensus policy" for domain names disputes
that impacts every domain name registrant.
It will be a busy year - and good to start planning now.
Happy Holidays Everyone!
