[SubPro-IRT] Application Fee FAQ

[Rubens Kuhl]

I reread the final report and ascending clock is not foreseen in the report, only a sealed bid like you mentioned. And the sealed bid  amount needs to be informed prior to Reveal Day, although it may be later changed in some conditions (like indirect contention and withdrawals).

There applicants have to make a "best guess" based on their business case estimates. This avoids bidding wars, and a bit less revenue to ICANN, but is also gives the winner a cost based on their business case estimates. ICANN going for more, and gamblers will likely disagree with me.
