Wow. This is some motion. Interesting that it is slipped in during all the commotion of VI etc. I am still at a bit of a loss to understand this. You are now reaching out to Registry Back end Service providers and assuming that ICANN play a role in supporting the payment of their services? Where does this end? I would love, personally, to have a license for mobile spectrum in Australia. I cannot afford it, therefore I don’t. My bad luck. I am not sure this is too much different. I am not sure why support needs to be granted on any level here. Originally, I agreed because we were discussing the supporting the development of the application itself. Some folks may have troubles in doing so (especially non English speakers etc). It seems to now be stretching much much further than this. I have yet to speak to my Stakeholder group on this topic but I assume we wouldn’t be supportive of this motion.

no comment,
I am still at a bit of a loss to understand this.

Registry back and service providers can participate VOLUNTARY and if they are really willing to assist needy applicants from developing regions. The extensions for the charter are to deal with fund raising and organizing not about ICANN giving financial assistance or even reducing fees.
I would love, personally, to have a license for mobile spectrum in Australia. I cannot afford it, therefore I don’t. My bad luck. I am not sure this is too much different. I am not sure why support needs to be granted on any level here.
if you are worried about application fees, I advice you to read again the last two ICANN board resolution about assisting applicants.
Originally, I agreed because we were discussing the supporting the development of the application itself. Some folks may have troubles in doing so (especially non English speakers etc). It seems to now be stretching much much further than this.
I have yet to speak to my Stakeholder group on this topic but I assume we
wouldn’t be supportive of this motion.
the final report will be available soon (sorry another reading in addition to the waited AGB)

Rafik, I have been reviewing the work of the JAS WG. It is all good work that is deserved of our attention. However, I have read the various Board resolutions that were the genesis of the working. The original notion was developed in order to provide support to applicants. Is it fair to say that, in your mind (or the WG’s for that matter), the following will be true given the support regime as you would have it; - a new gTLD applicant will have to pay the application fee in its entirety but will be subsidized through a foundation or external parties? - a new gTLD applicant will have to establish a Registry System to full and ‘standard’ ICANN compliance but may be subsidized in order to cover the costs associated? - ICANN may provide assistance in preparing the application for those where English is not a first language Can you clarify this for me so I can take this back to my SG? Thanks.

Hi Adrian, thank you for your interest, for clarification, an applicant won't necessary apply or/and have all kind of support. 1- it respect cost-recovery principle and we will work with the new gTLD program staff to accommodate that (Chuck amendment). We will work on topic of *external* sources of donors or foundations willing to support financially applicants. 2- yes, we didn't state exceptions for applicants regarding those requirements, assistance or support can be technical (from various service providers etc) or financial ( subsidized from external sources). the WG will work to figure out how this could best be done. 3- translation of material etc but not necessarily by ICANN, again the WG will work to figure out how it can be done as you see the WG will work to explore how things will be done (guidelines) Regards Rafik 2010/11/17 Adrian Kinderis <adrian@ausregistry.com.au>
Rafik,
I have been reviewing the work of the JAS WG.
It is all good work that is deserved of our attention.
However, I have read the various Board resolutions that were the genesis of the working. The original notion was developed in order to provide *support to applicants.*
Is it fair to say that, in your mind (or the WG’s for that matter), the following will be true given the support regime as you would have it;
- a new gTLD applicant will have to pay the application fee in its entirety but will be subsidized through a foundation or external parties?
- a new gTLD applicant will have to establish a Registry System to full and ‘standard’ ICANN compliance but may be subsidized in order to cover the costs associated?
- ICANN may provide assistance in preparing the application for those where English is not a first language
Can you clarify this for me so I can take this back to my SG? Thanks.

Rafik, I definitely support the work of the JAS working group and submitted comments to that effect when the initial report was published. Thanks for your efforts and those of the WG! I was wondering if you would consider a friendly amendment to your Motion for JAS WG charter extension. I would like to add the concept of bundling applications for multiple IDN scripts in small or underserved languages, at discounted fees. Rationale: For example, a multinational organization could consider multiple IDN scripts (like Arabic or Korean) to connect with a community in their native language. At $185,000 per application, that becomes very cost prohibitive, especially for a NGOs that may want to use the string to deliver services and not monetize the string for profits. In my reading of the report, it seems the WG considered bundling applications for multiple IDN scripts at discounted fees. (See "Support for Build-out in Underserved Languages and Scripts" Item 2.2.1) So, would you consider a friendly amendment adding the following objective to the list provided in the Motion? "Design mechanisms to encourage the build out of Internationalized Domain Names (IDNs) in small or underserved languages." Thanks, Debbie Debra Y.

I've some questionmarks regarding the Resolved under 1. c) Establishing a framework, including a possible recommendation for a separate ICANN originated foundation, for managing any auction income, beyond costs. for future rounds and ongoing assistance; This task seems to be beyond the scope of this group since use of auction income - beyond cost coverage - could be discussed from different point of views, not just from a perspective of applicant support. So more "neutrality" is required for this part of the discussion. I'd like to discuss this furtheron.

So more "neutrality" is required for this part of the discussion. I'd like to discuss this furtheron.

Hi Chuck As I understand things, Rafik was introducing the motion on behalf of the JAS, and when he sent Debbie's proposed amendment to the JAS list you and Tijani expressed concern that it might go beyond the charter. Therefore he informed Debbie that he did not have JAS consensus to view it as friendly. Cheers, Bill On Nov 18, 2010, at 11:18 AM, Gomes, Chuck wrote:

1- it respect cost-recovery principle and we will work with the new gTLD program staff to accommodate that (Chuck amendment). We will work on topic of external sources of donors or foundations willing to support financially applicants. 2- yes, we didn't state exceptions for applicants regarding those requirements, assistance or support can be technical (from various service providers etc) or financial ( subsidized from external sources). the WG will work to figure out how this could best be done. 3- translation of material etc but not necessarily by ICANN, again the WG will work to figure out how it can be done

I have been reviewing the work of the JAS WG.
It is all good work that is deserved of our attention.
However, I have read the various Board resolutions that were the genesis of the working. The original notion was developed in order to provide support to applicants.
Is it fair to say that, in your mind (or the WG’s for that matter), the following will be true given the support regime as you would have it;
- a new gTLD applicant will have to pay the application fee in its entirety but will be subsidized through a foundation or external parties? - a new gTLD applicant will have to establish a Registry System to full and ‘standard’ ICANN compliance but may be subsidized in order to cover the costs associated? - ICANN may provide assistance in preparing the application for those where English is not a first language
Can you clarify this for me so I can take this back to my SG? Thanks.

I would like the Council to consider doing an annual update of the process brought up by the WG, because of two benefits 1) Improving general awareness by the Councli members of the work going on; 2) A valuable tool for leadership in figuring the degree of consensus on the relative value of the different projects.

Thanks Jaimie, and here's a short recap of what I was saying, as Chuck requested: - Keep a model-based approach but simplify. - Council Leadership could play a part in suggesting priority projects to Council, those suggestions based on model approach. - Or we could take our thinking "outside the box". One idea: use US Congress style system of wiping the slate clean at the end of each calendar year. Others will no doubt have different ideas to suggest as well.
