Dear Marika,


Thanks very much for circulating this correspondence. I can also confirm that it was discussed in the CWG meeting earlier this week, and while concerns were raised about the simple fact of two parallel (if not overlapping) efforts that might arrive at different definitions of "geographic name" and different policy treatment across those different definitions, there was general agreement that the letter is a good thing in terms of evidence that this issue is one of broader awareness within the GAC, including the Chair.


Best wishes,


Heather (GNSO co-chair of the CWG, with Carlos Raul Gutierrez as other GNSO co-chair)

Dear All

For your information, please find attached the response from the GAC to the letter from the GNSO and ccNSO Chairs in relation to the potential overlap between the CWG to develop a framework for the use of Country and Territory Names as TLDs (CCWG-UCTN) and the GAC Protection of Geographic Names Working Group.

Best regards,

Marika
