- Thread-topic: USG comments on new gTLDs
Hello All,
I captured the following portion of Meredith Atwell Baker's speech for
information:
... following areas of concern with the new gTLD process that need
careful and thoughtful consideration and resolution prior to moving
forward:
(1) Impact of potential changes to the registrar/registrar marketplace
to allow for vertical integration;
(2) Expanding the marketplace before having effective and meaningful
tools to protect consumers and brand owners;
(3) demonstrating ICANN has sufficient capacity to enforce contract
compliance with, as yet, an unknown number of new contracts;
(4) the fee structure, the possible use of auctions and the disposition
of excess revenue given ICANN's status as a non-profit;
(5) and appropriate mechanisms to address dispute resolution, including
the very delicate issues of morality and public order.
Regards,
Bruce Tonkin
