Dear All,



Please see a message below and attached from Craig Schwartz, Chief gTLD
Registry Liaison at ICANN, regarding an open consultation on the proposed
registry agreement for new gTLDs.

Dear Community Members,

ICANN invites community participation in an open consultation regarding the
proposed registry agreement for new gTLDs. This meeting is being organized
in response to a commitment made by ICANN at its meetings in Seoul to
continue discussions with the community about open issues in the agreement,
including the process for amending the agreement, aspects of registry
services reviews, and restrictions on registry operators' ability to
distribute names through affiliated registrars (e.g., vertical separation).

The consultation will be held on Thursday, 7 January 2010, from 14:00 to
20:00 UTC <http://timeanddate.com/s/1gwx>.  A conference call bridge and
Adobe Connect access will be available for this discussion and all
interested parties are encouraged to participate.  ICANN will facilitate
this discussion from Washington, DC and space will be available to
accommodate some in-person participation.

The reference materials for the consultation include the Registry Agreement
published in Draft Applicant Guidebook v3 viewable at
http://icann.org/en/topics/new-gtlds/draft-agreement-specs-clean-04oct09-en.
pdf, the redline version of the Draft Applicant Guidebook from v2 to v3
viewable at
http://icann.org/en/topics/new-gtlds/draft-agreement-specs-redline-04oct09-e
n.pdf.

If you are interested in participating, please confirm at
registry-liaison at icann.org by
28 December 2009.  Please indicate whether you will attend in-person or
remotely. Additional details regarding remote participation will be provided
in advance of the consultation.



We look forward to your participation in this work.

Thank you.

Craig Schwartz
Chief gTLD Registry Liaison

ICANN
