<BR>
The IDNgTLD proponents have modified their petition and charter to correct the “typos” Kristina identified. The revised document is attached as an FYI.<BR>
<BR>
The Public Comment Forum is likely to be opened later today.<BR>

Based on discussions between the proponents and staff, my impression is that the “typo” is in the Charter document Membership section. Certainly an important distinction that will need to be clarified before we post the petition for public comment.<BR>
