As per recommendations received during conversations on this preparatory work, these resources have been placed on a community wikispace on Confluence and can be located here. To facilitate discussion on next steps, a mailing list has also been created as a forum for dialogue and coordination, found here. 

 

Additionally, a request has been submitted to hold a High Interest Session at ICANN55 that will be collaboratively designed providing an informed and comprehensive base from which to initiate discussions on next steps. 

 

This will require global, multistakeholder, bottom-up discussion and ICANN wants to make sure that, when the time is right, there are enough resources and background research available. We all will need to understand the operational, legal, and fiscal parameters and limitations to any potential definition(s). If you have specific suggestions or resources to add, please do not hesitate to get in contact. 

 

I would be grateful if you could kindly socialize this wikispace and above information with your colleagues and encourage participation where possible to help guide this conversation. 

 

Look forward to seeing you in the new year.

 

Best wishes,

 

Nora
