Dear Farzi, Kathy and Ephraim,
Thank you for all the comments and views you have shared on the list, below
are some of the talking points, for your comments:

   - New gTLD Subsequent Procedures
   - How is ICANN org preparing to share the opening of the (upcoming) new
   gTLD application rounds?
   - What marketing efforts is ICANN org planning to share the news with
   regions and indigenous peoples that did not actively participate in the
   first round?
   - To reach these groups and regions who did not participate before, how
   much before the application deadline will ICANN roll-out its marketing
   campaign?
   - How will it target its outreach to these communities?
   - In how many languages will the new gTLD materials be shared?
   - Can we petition for materials to be translated into additional
   languages if members of (NCSG) want to reach out to communities we know,
   and whose members may read/speak languages other than the six languages of
   the United Nations?
   - DNSSEC and DNS Abuse issues https://www.icann.org/dnsabuse  -   Help
   increase global DNSSEC adoption.



Kind regards,
Benjamin
