Dear At-Large For those of you who may feel the need for an overview of what has been happening in the PDPWG Work Track 5 on Geographic Names as the Top Level over the past several months, the co-Leaders are putting together a webinar on Jan 9, to inform people about how they can participate appropriately in the public comment which will end on Jan 22 (or perhaps sooner for us, so that we can add the appropriate cover letter before it gets sent away). Please read Emily's message below about how you can join us on January 9. Maureen *Date: *Thursday, 13 December 2018 at 19:55 *Subject: *[SOAC-Support] Announcement: New gTLD Subsequent Procedures Policy Development Process Working Group’s Work Track 5 on geographic names at the top level webinar Dear all, The Co-Leaders of the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures Policy Development Process Working Group’s Work Track 5 on geographic names at the top level will be holding a community information webinar on *Wednesday 9 January 2019 at 20:00 UTC for 60 minutes*. The purpose of the webinar is to provide an overview of Work Track 5’s Supplemental Initial Report [gnso.icann.org] <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__gnso.icann.org_sites_de...>, for which a public comment period [icann.org] <https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.icann.org_public-2D...> is currently open.
