The Role of Individual Internet Users in the GNSO
Open: 28 Oct 08
Closed: 28 Nov 08
 Explanation: The ICANN Board has asked for additional community input on
the appropriate role and representation of individual commercial and
non-commercial Internet users in the Generic Names Supporting Organization
(GNSO). Faced with a number of different recommendations stemming from
various independent reviews and GNSO and user-community group efforts, the
Board continues to consider this issue and believes that comments from the
community, especially stakeholders in the GNSO, ALAC and At-Large groups,
and any relevant applicants for new constituencies, would be particularly
helpful.

Potential commenters are asked to consider addressing the inclusion of
registrants and individual users in the GNSO in a manner that compliments
the ALAC and its supporting structures and ensures that registrants' and
individual Internet users' gTLD interests are effectively represented within
the GNSO. A summary document has been prepared by the ICANN Staff to provide
background on this issue and to outline a number of potential options being
considered by the Board.

Deadline and How to Submit Comments

The Staff is opening a 30-day public consultation forum, from 28 October
2008 until 28 November 2008, and invites community comments on this topic.

Comments on the document are welcome via email at gnso-users at icann.org. This
public forum will be open through 28 November 2008. An archive of all
comments received will be publicly posted at
http://forum.icann.org/lists/gnso-users/.
