<p>We would have to restrict the ability of a party to delay
signature and be clear that when a party applies, thhe conditions
at the time of application will apply. If they do not sign within
a month of the end of the round, they forfeit.</p>
<p>Sounds reasonable enough. <br>

don’t think we should treat TLDs like oil & gas
deposits. The reason is that there are many variations on
possible TLDs and the use of words depends on creativity in
the marketplace. Importantly, there are Objection
procedures to address the types of concerns you are raising.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Calibri;color:#1F497D">At
a certain future point, I think FCFS makes sense in a free
market, as long as we have more efficient and less costly
objection procedures and thorough evaluation prior to award
as well as commitment to PICs and no change in purpose on
Question 18 unless approved by ICANN.

do think that there has to be a standard though in relation
to Greg’s concern that applicants who have no intention of
launching a particular TLD will just try to reserve it. In
other words, a time period during which you “Launch it or
Lose It”. </span>

TLD applications and processes/evaluates and awards TLDs on
a First-come, First-served basis. However, to ease the
tracking problem that would come if applications were posted
every day, ICANN would commit to posting all of its
proposals Quarterly (for example) so that anyone that wanted
to file objections, public comments, etc. would have to only
check 4X per year (as an example). This would eliminate all
contention resolution, unless of course the application is
unsuccessful (in which case someone will develop a wait list
service for TLDs ;)).</span><o:p></o:p></p>

To be clear, no one is advocating FCFS to start off. It is
only being suggested AFTER the next round ends. So that
after we have dealt any pent up demand, we move to a rolling
registration of FCFS.<br>

I think the objection I hear most is how can it be

ICANN to move through the process that I don’t believe it
will really be an issue.<br>

However, we could just have ICANN issue the list of
applications once a month, or once a quarter even, to make
it easier to track.

When they announce is not related to when the application is

What about a hybrid approach? FCFS is a terrible idea when
no application has been permitted for over 5 years. There
is “pent-up†demand. It is also a terrible idea in
terms of ICANN staff resources. Personally (and obviously
not a view of the IPC), I would see it this way:<br>
<br>
1. We know GAC will advise Community Priority Round
based on EC Report and Copenhagen Communique. It would take
60% of the Board to reject that public policy advice and 2/3
of the Board to reject GNSO Council Advice to the contrary.
Will the Board act in this situation or just tell GAC and
GNSO to “work it outâ€? Why not “cut to the chaseâ€
and work it out with the GAC now ? All Objection processes
should apply. PICs have to be made in connection with
Community applications and they can’t be revoked or it
voids the registry agreement. It’s up to Track 3 to
develop more policy on Community applications but watch out
that we don’t trample on certain rights by stating that a
Community application has to meet a “social goodâ€
requirement. “Community†is also about freedom of
association, or in this case, freedom of “virtual
associationâ€.<br>
<br>
(Please note GAC may even include IGOs and Governmental
Organization applications in its public policy Advice for
priority rounds. No idea what applies as to IGOs and GOs
in terms of definition and PICs. Could an LRO be
successful against a Governmental Organization application
for a geo name? Is there any way to work this out now?
ICANN has got to get way more efficient in resolving policy
differences before they get to the Board. And would this
free up the process for geo name applications if no
application is made by a Governmental Organization during
this window? Could there be an “estoppel†factor if
geo name not covered by old version of AGB?)<br>
<br>
2. Applications from Brands – Yes, I favor a windoow
for brands. Why? Because it’s all easier under Spec 13
and I want the investment that brands have made in the
marketing of brand names that correspond with potential TLD
strings to pay off. (Yes, I am a trademark lawyer.)
Objection procedures still apply – e.g. string confusion,
community objection, legal rigghts, limited public interest,
etc. Applications for same brand passing initial
evaluation process would go into string contention. After
the contract award, a brand may only transfer to a third
party acquiring all or substantially all its stock or
assets, the trademark, and the good will associated with the
brand, and assuming all obligations of the registry,
including PICs if any.<br>
<br>
3. Open Window of Six Months – ICANN takes all ccomers
and applications compete. String contention and all
objection procedures apply.<br>
<br>
4. Six months after # 3 – FFCFS - No window – all types
of applications welcome - FFirst Come, First Served, (no
window but we need a public notice process as to strings
applied for to trigger notice for objections).

Lots of different perspectives so thought I’d add another.<br>
<br>
Appears as though categories, priorities, etc. creates
concerns around gaming the system. Perhaps trying to deal
with the elephant in the room would be the more direct
approach. How do we prevent gaming? For instance, what if
there was no private auction process or if the registry
could potentially lose ownership of the TLD if it changed
its operations to a different purpose than applied for or
the TLD was sold within a short period of time afterwards?
I’m not saying that these are solutions but just trying to
provoke a different perspective/thought.<br>

If conditions remain the same, then yes, you would probably
experience the rush in the round part, not in the FCFS part
down the road. But this does not resolve the issue of
various parties having to continue to watch over the
applications that come in over time. Instead of claims
notices you'd have to have "application notice services" to
protect affected parties from applications that affect them
directly from slipping through unnoticed. And even then the
risk of missing an application someone might have a
legitimate objection too is very high.<br>
<br>
It also rewards the fast over the thorough. Say two
potential applicants have the same idea for a string at the
same time. One writes up a quick application and fires it
off while the other takes care that the application fits the
community it is designed to serve, but alas as that takes a
day longer, that applicant misses out as the other "came
first".
<br>
<br>
OTOH, I am not a big fan of rounds either. Keeping it simple
has its benefits.<br>
<br>
Maybe FCFS is the best of all worlds after all, but we at
least should consider the risks and dangers and ensure that
whatever we end up with cannot be gamed for public harm.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">Actually, when
you look at the curves for most existing new gTLDs,

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">Another issue
with a continuous process is that of monitoring. With
rounds, it is essentially quite easy for potentially
affected parties to look at what is there and then chose
whether an objection is warranted or needed. With an open

that monitoring and constantly have to waste time and
ressources to make that decision.

agree to a degree. But what with “free market accessâ€
and “competition� I assume we face about 10,000
applications within 3 month after we open the floodgates.
Doesn’t matter whether it is a “round†or an
“ongoing process†– thhe number of applications won’t
change.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"
style="mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:36.0pt">If
you have no “round†– what is it then? The only othher
thing than a “round†is “First Comes First Servedâ€.
That’s a competition KILLER. The ones will win who have
the best “gTLD snapping technologyâ€. Why would we
ELIMINATE competition?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"
style="mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:36.0pt">There
is no way around having a “round†once we are ready to
accept applications. Plus there needs to be AMPLE time (at
least 6 month) after the final Applicant Guidebook is
published for applicants to make themselves familiar with
the AGB and form their application: This time it won’t be
only ICANN insiders who apply – but also many outsiders. The
application window itself could then be rather short (1 week
should be enough).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"
style="mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:36.0pt">But
I agree with you: Instead of a vague “promise†of a next
round in “about a year†– we should ALREADY set the date
for the nnext application window 6 to 12 month later. A
fixed date! It wouldn’t make much sense to have the next
window right 3 month later – ICANN’s capacities will nnot
allow for it. Also the next window dates should be FIXED.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"
style="mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:36.0pt">So
it’s almost like your “continuous application
mechanism†with one “launch date†– just that there
are various windows with fixed dates. To allow for
competition to happen.

<p class="MsoNormal"
style="mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:36.0pt">I
have initially been a BIG fan of “fast tracking†certain
categories – and frankly would benefit myself (one of the
strings I promote would fit into 4 or even 5 of these
suggested categories). But after much thinking I must say:
This smells like disaster! So I concur with Rob.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"
style="mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:36.0pt">Especially
as we would have to make sure that no “generic keyword
based†term would be applied for (and fast-tracked) as
either GEO or BRAND. Sneaky elements will find a small
geo-region identical to a generic string (think “.barâ€)
– obtainn the letter of non-objection – and get
fast-tracked. They then do NOT set up locality requirements
and …… €¦ market to “barsâ€. There is a geo location to
almost every generic term.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"
style="mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:36.0pt">Brands:
there is no definition of a “brand†in regard to the
DNS. At minimum the “brand†had to have a TM in say 25
to 50 (arbitrary number) countries since at least 20XX
(ideally before 2012) – AND should NOT be “genericâ€. If
you arre basing your brand on a generic term: Fine. Great.
Your own choice. But please do not expect that you have a
right on the entire generic keyword space on top level in
the DNS. Apply with everybody else – and see whether theere
is contention. In the real life “generic term based Brand
protection†works because you can exempt the term’s
natural meaning from being protected – in the DNNS there are
no “Trademark Goods and Services Classesâ€: unwittingly
the generic term meaning would be targeted, too! If you have
a brand “sunâ€: GREAT! Just do not tell us no one else
has a right to apply for a gTLD “.sun†– but you. You
haven’t protected “SUN†froom being used – just for
computers, or newspapers. Who kknows: Maybe there are 75
Million Chinese people with the surname “sun� Allow
someone to apply for a gTLD for them.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"
style="mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:36.0pt">And
“communities†or “non-profits� NOT if their
application is based on a generic term! By fast-tracking
them we deny others access. This would create a HUGE mess –
and liability for ICANN. ICANN woould get sued up and down.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"
style="mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:36.0pt">So
there must be ONE application window in 2020 (or whenever it
is) – once the applications are all in: we might
“side-track†GEOs or Brands IF there is no contention.
But that seems rather an implementation than a policy issue,
right?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"
style="mso-margin-top-alt:0cm;margin-right:0cm;margin-bottom:12.0pt;margin-left:36.0pt">As
for the transition of “windows†(rounds) to “an
ongoing process: I like Jeff Neumann’s suggestion that
once when in a certain round there are only a few (or none?)
contentions – we open the system up and allow real time
application submitting. Till then we have e.g. every two
years, annually or bi-annual “roundsâ€. Just not with an
8 years stop-gap in between like now. Most of the
“adjustment†to the Guidebook is due now (between the
1st and the 2nd round). After that there will be fewer and
smaller “adjustments†– they could be added “on the
flyâ€. I guess thee 2nd round (2020) will take up all of
ICANN’s capacity for say 2 years. So the 3rd round could
be set 2 years after the 2nd, the 4th a year after the 3rd,
then biannual rounds. Just: We need certainty for future
applicants –“ and definite schedule! <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">There are a
number of good reasons for categories -- certainly enough
not to dismiss it out of hand. Turning the TLD space into a
"high rollers" version of the SLD space is a troubling idea,
to say the least.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">There were
certainly problems with the community applications (not
really a separate "round") but something done poorly may be
worth doing better. I'm sure we have plenty of other horror
stories from different parts of the New gTLD Program and
from different perspectives. We should learn from them,
rather than use them as an excuse to move away from them.<o:p></o:p></p>

difficulties reconciling the notion of ignoring categories,
as it caused no end of problems after applications were
submitted and created unnecessary delays. Where there are
well-defined categories and a proven demand, categories can
be created and processes refined for that particular
category, especially where the operating model is very
different to the traditional selling /distribution to third
parties.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">In reading the
agenda for today’™s meeting, I read the spreadsheet
describing the different TLD types. (See,
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1mA_hTUhLhJSsfcmoQwREtUqxykZ5KfJffzJAAhEvNlA/edit#gid=1186181551">https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1mA_hTUhLhJSsfcmoQwREtUqxykZ5KfJffzJAAhEvNlA/edit#gid=1186181551</a>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">It looks
remarkably similar to a chart presented to the ICANN Board
in 2010 or 2011 as the main argument for not adding to the
categories of TLDs in the last round because they would be
problematic (read, “impossibleâ€) to implement. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">Even in this
spreadsheet, I can argue whether most of the tick marks in
the cells apply in all cases. This means that each of the
many tick marks presents a significant barrier to: (1)
getting through the policy discussion in a timely manner,
and (2) a clean implementation. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">Categories of
TLDs have always been problematic.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">The single
most important lesson from the 2003-04 sponsored TLD round
was to avoid a system where delegation of domain name
registries was predicated upon satisfying criteria
associated with categories.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">In the last
round, the Guidebook provided for two category types:
community and geographic. In my opinion, the implementation
of both was problematic: look at the variances in CPE
results and the difficulty with .AFRICA. This wasn’t ¢t
just a process failure, the task itself was extremely
difficult. Just how does an evaluation panel adjudge a
government approval of a TLD application if one ministry
says, ‘yes’ and the other ’no’? T¢no’?
This sort of issue is simple compared to evaluating
community applications. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">The
introduction of a number of new gTLD categories with a
number of different accommodations will lead to a complex
and difficult application and evaluation process (and an
expensive, complicated contractual compliance environment).
It is inevitable that the future will include ongoing
attempts to create policy for new categories as they are
conceived.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:36.0pt">For those who
want a smoothly running, fair, predictable gTLD program, the
creation of categories should be avoided.
