The Sub Pro IRT team received the attached implementation Work Plan from ICANN staff.  

I briefly reviewed the Work Plan and it appears the timeline for the  launch of the next round - May 2026 - is a bit long.  Still wondering whether we could create two work streams for the eight modules Org has described - four modules per workstream - or whether these have to be sequential in the timeline.  ICANN Staff may have certain underlying reasons that the work must be sequential.  I expect this will be discussed in today's Sub Pro IRT meeting.

Please note Applicant Support and Registry Services Provider Pre-Evaluation (PREP) appear to be separate work tracks.

Cheers,

Anne
