Thanks for referring to the ccNSO Finance WG, Mathieu. Yes, the Finance WG considered many scenarios indeed, and we appreciated that the key cost that ICANN incurs for ccTLDs is the IANA service. It was difficult to come up with one-size-fit-all contribution because ccTLD sizes (in terms of domain name registration figures) differ largely, but the conclusion was that ccTLDs should be encouraged to contribute to ICANN across different bands.

You will find details in the final report available here : http://ccnso.icann.org/workinggroups/finance-wg.htm Best Mathieu Le 27/10/2014 19:07, Donna Austin a écrit :
I know things have moved on since 2006, when this program was started and the ccNSO has come to an understanding with ICANN with regard to fees (and I look to Bart Boswinkel or others to provide an update), but the language in many of the AF documents remains that the contribution is made on the basis that ICANN reliably performs the IANA function.
