Dear Council members,

Yesterday ICANN commenced its 15-calendar day preliminary review period on a request from RegistryPro for allocation of single, two and three-character domain names (three-characters not in conflict with other reserved names). Information on the proposal can be found at http://www.icann.org/en/registries/rsep/#2009002.  

Although public comments can be submitted at any time on a registry services proposal to registryservice at icann.org, this is not notification of a formal comment period. Information on the Registry Services Evaluation Process can be found at http://www.icann.org/registries/rsep/.  

Please let me know if you have additional questions.

Regards,

Patrick
