<div dir="ltr">Hi Chuck,
<div><br>I am concerned that the only explanation that we can hear is
"staff said" or "staff stated" or "staff explained" or "staff
decided". I understand for the need for support form the staff but for
GNSO council, there are still rooms to have its own vision and making
decision independently from staff reports? </div>
<div><br></div>
<div>@Alan yes the feeling is that ICANN is not listening to people
from developing countries and get more worse when ICANN "would like"
ccTLD from African region to participate with 3% (Idea suggested by
Rod) or also to hear the "technical support" which will be provided by
the proposed DNS-CERT (it is really offending and just overlapping
with tasks done by regional organizations)</div>

don't think anyone believes that the costs to run every registry is
the same. Some have higher security needs than others.
Some need a more global infrastructure than others. Some
have lower costs in their region and in other places in the world.
All have different business plans.<br><br>But the basic cost
of evaluating an application, excluding any dispute processes that
may ensue, are essentially the same for all applicants except in
cases where the same applicant applies for multiple TLDs. The
way Staff has decided to impose application fees as of now, they
have already built in subsidization of fees for single TLD
applicants by those applying for multiple TLDs.<br><font color="#888888"><br>Chuck<br></font>

Resolution 20 at the Nairobi Meeti<br>><br>><br>> Hello
All,<br>><br>> In my point of view, it sounds that you are
wrongly using the<br>> principle of equality in this case which
looks more like<br>> discrimination against applicants for
developing regions. Why<br>> you want a registry from developing
regions to have the same<br>> budget of registry in developed
country?there are a lot of<br>> way to cut costs.<br>><br>>
Yes, a registry in developing region can be run with respect<br>>
to all ICANN requirements in cheaper way than in developed
country.<br>> That is why I would like if possible that Bruce
point to<br>> documents (if they exist) explaining in details the
why of<br>> such requested costs for running a regisrty from
ICANN<br>> perspective?but also for the application fees as
the<br>> explanation of cost recovery remains vague and
abstract.<br>><br>> Thank you,<br>><br>>

too high. My first question to any of<br>> them though<br>>
would be to ask if the entry cost is too high, do you<br>>
