We need to examine available information such as:
-Whether OCTO has or is looking to change its position from the relevant paper it published in April 2022 on this topic, in light of developments with blockchain etc etc
-Whether SSAC has or is working on an opinion on the topic (outside of NCAP, for which alt DNS is out of scope)

Do you have or can you collect some actual data to support your remark of "Some ICANN accredited registrars sell some blockchain DNS based gTLDs,"?

Kind regards,
Justine

Dear friends,
I personally have in mind those  questions for the board about  distributed DNS

"Some ICANN accredited  registrars sell some blockchain DNS based gTLDs, did the board  encourage such activities?
If some non regular DNS causes some collision with some regular DNS gTLD ,accredited by ICANN, how will ICANN act to resolve this issue?"

If you  continue to consider those questions immature as most of our friends mentioned during the call, I personally support Sebastien's proposal to constitute a subgroup that will continue to follow this topic.

Thank you again for your interest in this topic.
Friendly regards
Chokri
