Understood and we can aim to get these in

How about getting these (where appropriate) to Christine?

Dear Jonathan:

 

Here are a few questions that are important to the IPC, and which expand upon 
our existing list of subjects to discuss with the ICANN Board of Directors.  I 
believe these questions would fit generally under the umbrella of “key areas of 
GNSO policy work underway.”

 

·         New gTLD Sunrise and Eligibility:  When will ICANN compile sunrise 
dates and eligibility criteria in a centralized, accurate and complete 
resources that is easy to access?  The contracting page on the ICANN website 
has none of these characteristics and at least one sunrise period has already 
begun!

 

·         New gTLD Objection Mechanisms:  

 

o    Can the Board please provide the GNSO an update on its monitoring 
regarding string confusion determinations for singular and plural TLDs?  All 
but one objections has already been decided.

 

o    When will ICANN clarify rules pertaining to indirect contention sets and 
auctions, confirming that all applications in contention will result in a 
single auction?

 

o    What does the Board intend to do to redress community frustration with the 
delays and disproportionately high dispute resolution service provider fees 
with respect to community objections filed through the International Chamber of 
Commerce?

 

It would be great if we could quickly hit on a few of these important points to 
ensure that the Board is aware of them.  

 

Thank you,

 

Brian
