Dear all,
The New gTLD Subsequent Procedures Policy Development Process Working Group seeks volunteers to serve on a new sub team, known as Work Track 5 (WT5), which will focus exclusively on the treatment of geographic
names at the top level. This issue is one of the topics in the WG's charter:

How to Join?
If you are interested in joining Work Track 5 as a member or mailing list observer, please fill in the sign up form. If you are having trouble using the
sign-up form, please email gnso-secs@icann.org for assistance.
All members and observers will be listed on the PDP WG's wiki page.
Next Steps?
Please circulate the call for volunteers as widely as possible in order to ensure broad representation and participation in Work Track 5. This initial call will remain open until
20 November.
Volunteers are also welcome to join the Work Track at any time after 20 November.
Members who join the Work Track after work has begun will be responsible for reviewing all Work Track deliberations, agreements, and documents so that they are prepared to participate fully. Regular online
meetings will be scheduled in accordance with the Work Track's work plan, which it is expected to develop as one of its first tasks.
Drafting of WT5 Terms of Reference is currently underway with the WT leadership and will be finalized in the near future.
Best regards,
Joke Braeken
