Dear WT1 Members,
WT1 has discussed comments made by Akram Atallah, related to possible concerns the community might have about ICANN Org becoming a “registry of registries.” Per action item 8 captured on WT1’s action list here (https://community.icann.org/x/aRq4Aw), please find ICANN Org’s response below.
During the last couple of WT1 calls, there were requests for clarification regarding the context of Akram’s comment that one of the things the PDP Working Group should consider is whether ICANN should be a registry of registries. Please find below the response to this request to share with WT1.
Akram’s comment referred to by WT1 was a suggestion for the PDP Working Group to consider what it envisions to be the end goal of the new gTLD Program (i.e., whether it envisions a few thousands/hundreds of thousands/millions gTLDs to be added to the root, and is there a cap). Once the end goal is known, the Program, including fees, could then be structured to meet the goal and achieve the vision.
Best,
Steve
