[announce] Invitation to New gTLDs Workshop at ICANN LA Meeting
Please mark in your calendar the New gTLDs Workshop at ICANN LA Meeting We hope that you will attend! Members of your constituency are invited and encouraged to attend a special, interactive workshop at ICANN's Los Angeles meeting focused on the GNSO Council's final report on the introduction of new gTLDs. The New gTLDs Workshop will be held Monday afternoon, 29 October (tentatively scheduled from 12:30 to 18:30). Participants will receive a comprehensive overview of the recommendations recently approved by the GNSO Council for the introduction of new gTLDs, including the principles, recommendations, and implementation guidelines contained in the Council's final report that is being sent to ICANN's Board for consideration. The introduction of new top-level domains is a core element of ICANN's mission. The policies that have emerged from the GNSO's policy development process are central to establishing an open and transparent system for the introduction of new top-level domains. The workshop will feature extensive opportunities for audience comments and questions and Council responses. The GNSO's final report on the introduction of new gTLDs can be found at <http://gnso.icann.org/issues/new-gtlds/pdp-dec05-fr-parta-08aug07.htm> (Part A) and <http://gnso.icann.org/issues/new-gtlds/pdp-dec05-fr-partb-01aug07.htm> (Part B). As Council members develop the workshop's agenda, more detailed information will be emailed. We look forward to seeing you in LA.
