• Updated criteria for the selection of supported travelers, separated from requirements
• In line with other ccNSO guidelines, added the miscellaneous chapter, regarding review etc
• Removed all references to internal working methods by the committee (assessment methodology)
• Removed the application template from the annex
• Overall, tried to be short and concise and improve readability.

Timeline

• Unless there are comments or concerns by Council, the guideline will be sent to the ccNSO members for their review. Deadline for comments by the ccTLD community is Monday, 16 September – end of day.
• Unless there are fundamental comments or concerns by the community, the guideline is expected to be adopted by Council at its September meeting (19 September)
