As ICANN org President and CEO Göran Marby wrote about in his May 2020 blog<https://www.icann.org/news/blog/a-preview-of-the-improved-icann-org-an-infor...>, the Information Transparency Initiative (ITI) team is releasing new content to https://preview.icann.org<https://preview.icann.org/> on a regular basis. This https://icann.org<https://icann.org/> content has been improved with ITI’s enhanced search features. Today, we added new content and improved previously released content including: · Correspondence - New findability improvements include keyword(s) search allowing you to narrow your search within Correspondence files, an advanced year selector, a helpful sub-navigation menu, and an improved table layout to enhance accessibility and readability. · Board Meeting Materials - We’ve made upgrades to this content type since the May 2020 release. The keyword(s) search has been implemented and improved, and most Board Meeting files and pages from 1998-2019 are now available via filtered or keyword search. · Acronyms and Terms - Enhancements to the existing release include alignment with ITI’s new user experience, additional terms added in all six U.N. languages, and a new sub-navigation menu.
