Jeff – can you circulate the Board decision on this?  That will help us determine if it was policy as opposed to something else.

thanks

Anne,

One of the issues we have is that there is no policy on this.  There was a declaration by the ICANN Board before the last round that the number of new gTLD delegations be limited to no more than 1000 per calendar year.  That was not a policy decision.

We still have the “Chicken and the egg” problem here.  If there is a limit on the number of delegations per year, that will certainly influence the policies and procedures we set.  On the other hand, the policies and procedures that we set may limit the number of delegations that can happen in any given year.

At this point, I think we need to determine what our policies should be in an ideal world without any limits to the number of delegations that could occur in a given year (assuming that ICANN Org will staff up to meet those requirements).  Once we present those policy recommendations, if we get information from ICANN Org or elsewhere that those recommendations will result in limits, we can address at that point.

Does everyone agree?

As I understand it, the basic issue here is the rate of change to the root and not necessarily how many more TLDs can be added in any one year.  (Rate of change to the root could be too high if all 1,000 were added in one month or one quarter.)

The letter seems to indicate that the controlling variable is going to be human resources/processing time for applications rather than root instability on technical grounds, while at the same time pointing out there are lots of uncontrolled variables.

Hard to see how we could base a policy change on this information.
