To: Chair, ICANN BoardCC: ICANN SecretaryHello Vint,The GNSO Council in its meeting of 1 September 2005, made the followingdecision with respect to an approach for considering the development ofa comprehensive policy for new gTLDs.I have attached a draft paper under development within the GNSO thatoutlines the GNSO approach to addressing new gtld policy issues.The Council decided to handle the work on new gtlds as three parallelwork streams:(1)  Complete the evaluation of the introduction of the limited numberof new gTLDS, including considering the process and introduction of themost recent new gTLDS (e.g .travel, .mobi, and .jobs).(2) A single policy development process which would look at issuesincluding*	whether to continue to introduce new gTLDs *	the criteria for approving applications for new gTLDs *	the allocation method, assuming that there was a limit to howmany gTLDs could be introduced at once*	the key contractual conditions for those gTLDs which mightinclude cond!
 itions
 such as : escrow policies, obligation to use an ICANNaccredited registrar etc. (3) A policy development process to be undertaken in collaboration withthe ccNSO for the introduction of new TLDs that use an internationalizeddomain name stringThe GNSO will be seeking a budget to obtain expert advice to assist inthese policy development initiatives.The GNSO will be fleshing out the draft approach in consultation withICANN staff, and will keep the Board informed of developments.   Oncethe GNSO Council has a clear work program with timelines, the GNSOCouncil will request a meeting with the ICANN Board to discuss in moredetail.Regards,Bruce TonkinChair, GNSO Council
