Having concluded the detailed stakeholder discussions on policy and implementation for this program, ICANN is preparing for its launch: applications for new gTLDs are planned to be accepted 12 January – 12 April 2012. (Note: all applicants must at least register in the online application system by 29 March 2012.)<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span lang=EN-US>The <em>Applicant Guidebook</em> is a comprehensive guide for applicants that describes the New Generic Top-Level Domain program's requirements and evaluation processes. The <em>Applicant Guidebook</em> has been developed and improved through extensive public review by specialized working groups and ICANN's Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees. Each draft has been accompanied by extensive public comment analyses, explanatory memoranda, and independent reports. The modifications made to this version of the guidebook (version 2011-07-29) are primarily limited to changes directed by the </span><a href="http://www.icann.org/en/minutes/resolutions-20jun11-en.htm"><span lang=EN-US>Board resolution</span></a><span lang=EN-US> from the 20 June meeting in Singapore.<o:p></o:p></span></p><h3><span lang=EN-US>What's next?<o:p></o:p></span></h3><p><span lang=EN-US>The <em>Applicant Guidebook</em> is intended to be an inclusive guide and will be regularly updated as aspects of the process are deemed necessary and are implemented. In addition to the <em>Applicant Guidebook</em>, a summary of changes since the last version and a discussion version of a process for amending the <em>Applicant Guidebook</em> are also posted. There are certain areas where work is still ongoing, such as: whether single character Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) can be delegated as TLDs, ensuring continued registry operation through a continued operations instrument, and providing support for needy applicants through the work of the Joint Applicant Support (JAS) working group.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p><span lang=EN-US>As to the last issue, the Board is committed to providing support for applicants from developing countries, and the JAS working group has recommended the criteria for that support.
