I am not finding the information I need on the new gTLDs Working Group. (1) Who is the ALAC "Issue Coordinator" for this topic? (2) Is there a "task leader"? (3) Does the Working Group have a Chair? (4) What are the WG Terms of Reference? (5) What is the Working Group's project timeline? (6) Who are the Working Group members? (7) Have all the RALOs notified their members about this WG? (8) Has the WG Chair reached out to all 93 accredited ALSs asking for participation and input? (9) Where is the collection of background documents to review? (10) Where do we find relevant ALAC commentary on the topic? Is there an ALAC-generated Issues Report for public consumption? (11) What implementation issues are anticipated? (12) As the Staff implementation issues report is not due until January 2008, what will the WG do in the meantime? (13) Noting that Erick and Guru have volunteered to participate and that Hue has received several endorsements to presumably serve as "coordinator", at what point are we expecting coordination to actually start happening? Finally, you can probably apply all these questions (and more) to every WG that the ALAC has set up. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Get easy, one-click access to your favorites.
