On behalf of the gTLD Registries Stakeholder Group (RySG), please find attached our comments on the Initial Report of the New gTLD Auction Proceeds Cross-Community Working Group. In the interest of time, we did not conduct a vote on these comments. We did discuss them on our mailing list and during a biweekly conference call, and no member opposed their submission.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.

Best,

Samantha Demetriou

RySG Vice Chair, Policy
