> The BC sent a letter to ICANN CEO and Board on 22-Oct (link<http://www.bizconst.org/Positions-Statements/Singular-Plural%20TLDs.pdf>)
> with two requests:
>
> We asked ICANN to publish any evidence considered by expert panels,
> arbitration providers, and ICANN staff in its evaluation of these decisions.
>
> We asked ICANN to publish specific objective criteria to judge string
> similarity, and allow for an appeal system where applicants can challenge
> prior ICDR decisions on singular-plural TLDs based on this criteria.
>
> We re-iterated those requests at the Public Forum in BA, asking if the
> Board shared the BC concerns.  NGPC member Mike Silber replied, "Yes,
> several of us are very concerned about this."
