Dear All,
I hereby bring 2 NCAP-related requests to your attention: a request for public comments and a request for a contractor.
As part of the project plan for the name collision analysis project (NCAP), the SSAC would like to seek public input on the definition of name collision and scope of
inquiry for the name collision analysis project.
Next Steps: The NCAP discussion group will finalize the definition of name collision and scope of inquiry for the name collision analysis project after considering the
public input.

ICANN is seeking to identify a contractor to perform the research, analysis, and writing necessary to produce Study 1 of the Name Collision Analysis Project (NCAP).
Name collision refers to the situation where a name that is defined and used in one namespace may also appear in another. Users and applications intending to use a name
in one namespace may attempt to use it in a different one, and unexpected behavior may result where the intended use of the name is not the same in both namespaces.
For a complete overview of the RFP including the timeline, please see here.
Indications of interest should be emailed to NCAP-Study1-RFP@icann.org. Proposals should be electronically submitted by
23:59 UTC on 30 July 2019 using ICANN's sourcing tool. Access to the ICANN org sourcing tool may be requested via the same email.
Close date: 30 July 2019 (23:59 UTC)
