Dear All,
The gTLD Review Group (gTLD RG ; https://community.icann.org/x/u7-bAQ) received a comment on community objection grounds by InternetNZ, an ALS in APRALO, on the application by Amazon EU S.A.R.L for the applied for gTLD string "book" on July 26 2012.
InternetNZ's comment was posted to the At-Large new gTLD Applications Dashboard Workspace at https://community.icann.org/display/newgtldrg/.book+_OG
Several comments from At-Large, including members of the gTLD RG were received and posted on the wiki page at https://community.icann.org/display/newgtldrg/.book+_OG including a condensed version of InternetNZ's comment by gTLD RG members Eduardo Diaz and Yrjo Lansipuro.
The comments by InternetNZ and others raises concerns regarding the availability of 2nd level domains under generic TLDs. Whether domains under such proposed generic TLDs should be available or "open" to the wider public or "closed" to the applicants applying for the proposed gTLD.
Because such concepts are outside the scope of the application for ".book" by Amazon EU s.a.r.l, the gTLD RG on its conference call on Monday August 6 2012 (https://community.icann.org/x/iAUeAg) decided not to submit a comment on this application to the ALAC for possible submission to ICANN's new gTLD comment forum before the close of the Application Comment Period.
However, given the concepts raised regarding the availability of 2nd level domains under gTLDs has policy implications that impacts individual Internet end users, the gTLD RG recommends that the issues raised be referred to the At-Large new gTLD Working Group (https://community.icann.org/x/8Yoi) for discussion and possible policy recommendations.

Hi Sala: What was agreed was explicit recognition of copyright and all that flows from that. Content that is still under copyright and digitized by Google for their platform may not only be accessed [for fee!] thru Google Play but in making a copy available to the original publisher[s], also via channels determined by the original publisher[s]. Now if I were these companies and speaking to your connecting the dots to .book, I would've sought and signed a contingent agreement. For I could see a McGraw-Hill or Pearson getting into bed with Google for a .book domain name as part of this settlement. Say to Google "yeah, keep that copy and sell it for me. And do make sure to remit my [x] portion of the revenue. I have another idea on bundling so I will put all my digital properties directly to consumers with great trust and confidence in MGH.book domain you are so kind to provide. There's a good lad". Not a bad deal either; Google does the grunt work to format and prep the digital document, they get a copy and via this copy can develop another business model that [add some value +] directly compete with Google Play. Room to innovate on top of the innovator! Not a bad end of play to 7 years worth of work, come to think..... - Carlton ============================== Carlton A Samuels Mobile: 876-818-1799 *Strategy, Planning, Governance, Assessment & Turnaround* ============================= On Fri, Oct 5, 2012 at 7:02 PM, Salanieta T.
