Return from ICANN 38 Brussels

The beautiful city of Brussels, Belgium hosted the 38th meeting for ICANN. This meeting saw the representatives begging for the finalization stages for the application process. Issues were settled, compromises reached and the Applicant Guidebook version 4 was released. Points of Interest: ICANN's Board of Directors is taking a special retreat, tentatively scheduled for September 2010, to try to sort out the remaining gTLD issues. This was publicly announced by Chairman Peter Dengate-Thrush and much discussed during the Brussels meeting. This shows that the Board is taking their task seriously and we can expect the final revisions very soon. The ‘.XXX’ gTLD was approved and will be allowed to submit their application. The Vertical Integration Policy Development Process (VI PDP) is not going to delay new gTLDs. That doesn't mean the results won't affect new gTLDs, but it's not going to slow things down. The final shape of the applicant guidebook is becoming clear. Problems are visible in outline and in many cases in great detail. There are several efforts underway, including the Board retreat and various hurry-up working groups, to get the new gTLD program to the finish line and will hopefully do so at the next ICANN meeting in early December 2010 in Cartagena, Colombia.

Seems to be a tremendous amount of hurry up and wait all the way around. What do you guys do in the interim to protect your positioning within the application process?

I know this if off topic but I'm looking into rnastitg my own blog and was curious what all is required to get setup? I'm assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I'm not very web savvy so I'm not 100% positive. Any recommendations or advice would be greatly appreciated. Appreciate it

I would like to express pporeciatian to you for rescuing me from this type of crisis. Because of looking out throughout the the net and seeing things which were not productive, I believed my life was gone. Being alive without the approaches to the issues you have sorted out all through your main site is a crucial case, as well as the ones which could have in a negative way affected my career if I had not encountered your web blog. Your own natural talent and kindness in controlling the whole lot was excellent. I don't know what I would have done if I hadn't come upon such a point like this. It's possible to at this moment look ahead to my future. Thanks a lot very much for the high quality and sensible guide. I will not be reluctant to refer your web sites to anybody who requires assistance on this problem.

I think having more TLD's is a good thing. There is nelpty of money to be made and anything that helps sort out the internet would be welcome. How about a .store for all legitimate e-commerce web sites.

theo, the big deal is that the primary ansdrtivieg campaign for .XXX is informing business owners that they should protect their brand' if ICM isn't going to allow domain squatting on trademarks, I'm not sure why they're scaring business owners and universities into buying the domains in the first place. The fact of the matter is ICM is doing their best to intimidate businesses/universities/etc by saying better get these domains or else you leave your name open to be linked to god knows what' if ICM was only ansdrtivieg .XXX for porn, I couldn't make this argument. But they're not, they're ansdrtivieg .XXX as an intimidation factor.

i'm glad our u.s. govt controls the iterennt through the Department of Commerce if not the u.s., what entity would you have be responsible for iterennt ownership ? the u.n.?if switzerland chose to block .jewish (which they wouldn't, bad example on your part), that's a swiss issue in their country they need to determine their own policies and if, like in china, they wish to permit a subset of the iterennt to be available, i can choose to do business in that environment or not ultimately censorship is to their detriment, but that's their decision, not mine to imposegod's speed, USCybercomwon't be signing your petition-s
