Hi Kathy, thank you for raising this topic. Amr, I completely share your views on that. In my understanding, the reviews should offer information and data for the policy development process. They should serve the PDP and not be a way to bypass it. We should include this point in our contribution to the public comment period.

Who would be interested to be part of a team to work on NCSG's contribution to this public comment?

Best!
Mar?lia

Hi,

I saw this too. I didn?t know anything about it until I read the announcement, but James Bladel did bring up a similar issue (to my surprise) during the GNSO Council Wrap Up session on Thursday. There was apparently a proposal from the GAC and ALAC to set up a CCWG to discuss safeguards for ?sensitive strings?.

I haven?t read the report yet, but I don?t believe that policies should be developed for the current round of new gTLDs outside of the GNSO, so don?t think the idea of a CCWG is a good one. I?m not sure what the purpose of this report is, but we need to keep an eye on what direction this is headed to.

Thanks.

Amr

It defines the activities that constitute DNS abuse and assesses indicators of the rate of abuse in new gTLDs and the DNS as a whole. The report also explores user feedback with these safeguards and presents additional proposals for researching how these safeguards might be affecting abuse rates.

Comprehensive reviews of the program have begun and cover a variety of topics including competition, consumer trust and choice, security and stability, rights protection and other areas. Along with commissioning third-party analyses, ICANN is capturing stakeholder experiences regarding the effects of the New gTLD Program.
