<DIV>Sorry to jump in rather late, and I know the agenda is already pretty packed, but I had a question/suggestion - should there be room on the agenda for a brief, but overall, discussion of the new version of the Draft Applicant Guidebook (DAG version 4)? Perhaps under Issues & Strategies in the afternoon?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>For instance, besides the trademark issue, should NCSG discuss in particular (1) the dispute resolution issues (e.g. community/morality and public order objections and standing to object); and (2) the barriers to new gTLDs in developing regions (i.e. the WG that Avri chairs and that Rafik and Alex are on)?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I ask because these two topics - there may be more that others can remind us of - are not only substantive in nature but also raise strategic questions, e.g. if/how we can enlist GAC support for (1) and updates on/suggested actions in relation to (2).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>(BTW the Staff have taken to calling the DAG the AGB (Applicant Guidebook) ... for those who collect acronyms and/or delight in musing over motives and nomenclature :)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Cheers</DIV>
