NEW: ICANN Thanks You for a Successful Inaugural Asia Pacific DNS Forum 2022
We've successfully launched the inaugural Asia Pacific (APAC) Domain Name System (DNS) Forum from 30 March to 1 April 2022.
As mentioned in my previous blog
[r20.rs6.net], the goals for this Forum were to bring stakeholders from the region together to exchange information, share views, and collaborate to address the upcoming challenges and opportunities for the DNS. I'm happy to report that we've met
all of these goals. I would also like to share the way forward for the APAC DNS Forum.

NEXT WEEK: Request for Input - GNSO Statement of Interest
The GNSO Council has recently embarked on a review of its Statement of Interest (SOI) requirements to determine whether these are still fit for purpose, and if not, what updates should
be considered. To this end, the GNSO SOI Task Force (TF) was formed. As part of its assignment, the TF is reaching out to the ICANN community to solicit input on the current use and experience with SOIs as well as suggestions for possible improvements.
We understand that some of you may use the SOI, either in its current form or a modified format, for your own purposes. We would be interested to hear about those experiences as well
as any lessons learned that may help inform our recommendations. You are encouraged to share this information with your respective groups.
To provide input, please complete the following
survey [r20.rs6.net] by Wednesday, 4 May.
Your input will be much appreciated!
