Dear all, Reference is made to the *SubPro Updates workspace <https://community.icann.org/x/6a_jBg>*. The Subsequent Procedures PDP WG will start deliberations on public comments on the topic of Community Applications at its next call on 10 Oct 3:00 UTC. Here is an *update on the topic of Community Applications as at 9 Oct 2019 <https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/111390697/01.%20SubPro%20Community%20Applications%20as%20at%209.10.2019%20for%20CPWG.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1570606486153&api=v2>* . CCT Recommendation #34 applies to this topic. It calls for a review of procedures & objectives for community-based applications, and for improvements to be made before the new application round is launched. I will try to speak to this topic at the upcoming CPWG call if there is time to do so; else I will consider the need for a revised update after the SubPro WG call. Justine Chew -----
