Accuracy Scoping Team
From: David Olive, Senior Vice President, Policy Development Support
The GNSO Council has reached out to the different GNSO Stakeholder Groups/Constituencies, Supporting Organizations, and Advisory Committees to inform them that the
GNSO Council is planning to form a scoping team to address the topic of accuracy of gTLD registration data.
The scoping team will be tasked to facilitate community understanding of the issue and assist in scoping and defining the issue, including proposed next steps for
any issues identified which could include requesting an Issue Report on the topic (the first step in a policy development process). To be clear, this scoping team will NOT be tasked with developing recommendations or solutions related to accuracy; its focus
will be on scoping the issue and identifying what issues, if any, need further work and/or consideration.
Interested SG/C/SO/ACs will be asked to identify representatives that will join the scoping team once the GNSO Council confirms the starting date.
