Dear SG/C Chairs,

We hope this email finds you well.

The GNSO is seeking volunteers from the community to serve on the Standing
Predictability Implementation Review Team (SPIRT). Convened and overseen by
the GNSO Council in accordance with the SPIRT Charter
<https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/policy/2024/draft/final-charter-spirt-29jul24.pdf>,
the SPIRT provides input to the GNSO Council, the ICANN Board, ICANN org,
and the ICANN community on issues that may arise in the New gTLD Program
following the approval of the Applicant Guidebook (AGB). As the SPIRT will
function as an Open Model, any member of a GNSO Stakeholder
Group/Constituency is eligible to apply.

The GNSO Council requests that volunteers take into account the expected
membership criteria and rules of engagement specified in the SPIRT Charter.
The SPIRT will tentatively commence its work during the week of 10–14
November 2025. At least half of the inaugural members will serve three-year
terms. Initial membership must include, at a minimum:

   - One participant from the original Policy Development Process (PDP)
   Working Group


   - One participant from the PDP Implementation Review Team



Community members who wish to join the SPIRT should contact the GNSO
Secretariat at gnso-secs at icann.org *by Friday, 17 October 2025 at 23:59
UTC.*
