[Gnso-newgtld-wg-wt5] CWG Use of Country and Territory Names Final Report

[Annebeth Lange]

Hi Heather,

The relevant resolution from ccNSO is published here:

20 July 2017

Support of recommendations and adoption of final paper – CCWG Use of Country and Territory Names

131-03
Background
At the ccNSO members meeting the recommendations of the CCWG Use of Country and Territory names to continue work on use of Country and Territory Names as TLDs were discussed and supported. However, the format to continue work is still under community discussion. Awaiting the outcome of that discussion the ccNSO Council defers the adoption of the final paper to the next meeting (July 2017).
Decision
THE CCNSO COUNCIL RESOLVED TO adopt the Final Paper of and support recommendation 1, 2 and 4:
1. Close this CWG in accordance with and as foreseen in the charter.
2. Recommend that the ICANN community consolidate all policy efforts relating to geographic names (as that term has traditionally very broadly been defined in the ICANN environment to this point) to enable in-depth analyses and discussions on all aspects related to all geographic-related names. This is the only way, in our view, to determine whether a harmonized framework is truly achievable.
4. Recommend that future policy development work must facilitate an all-inclusive dialogue to ensure that all members of the community have the opportunity to participate. Again, we believe that this is the only way to determine whether a harmonized framework is truly achievable.
The Council also request the ccNSO appointed members to the CWG to keep the Council abreast of the developments and advise the Council on next steps. The ccNSO Council thanks and congratulates the CWG and in particular its ccNSO appointed members and co-chair Annebeth Lange.


Best regards.
Annebeth
