Dear All, On 2 June 2022, the most recent version of the ICANN Bylaws was published. Consequently, amendments to Article 10<https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/bylaws-2022-06-02-en#article10>, on the Country Code Names Supporting Organization (ccNSO), and Annex B<https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/bylaws-2022-06-02-en#annexB>, on the ccNSO Policy Development Process, became effective. The amendments were needed to enable interested Internationalised Domain Name (IDN) country code top-level domain (ccTLD) Managers to become members of the ccNSO. Highlights of the amended Bylaws: * Adjustment of membership qualifications (section 10.4 (a)) * Designation of Representative and Emissary (section 10.4 (e)) * Details on the role of the Representative and Emissary respectively (Section 10.4 and Annex B) This amendment of the ICANN Bylaws concludes a process that started in 2007 with the second ccNSO Policy Development Process. Among others, ccPDP2 was tasked with proposing changes the ccNSO-related parts of the ICANN Bylaws to allow inclusion of IDN ccTLD Managers in the ccNSO.
