Dear Mike, Thanks for clarifying what exactly you meant in your previous e-mail. These two exceptions out of more than a thousand applications puts things in perspective. Best, Rosalía [cid:B190111C-4AAD-456E-809F-8934B6CA8935] On Sep 7, 2018, at 3:11 PM, Mike Rodenbaugh <mike@rodenbaugh.com<mailto:mike@rodenbaugh.com>> wrote: Also "exceptions" like Amazon and Persian Gulf, which were not 'geo terms' as defined, and yet nevertheless have met government opposition and delay. There needs to be certainly for future applicants, as was clearly intended to have been the goal in 2012, only to be thwarted by governments many times over.

If we don’t fix this, we’ve failed.

As far as I’m concerned, the program went by pretty well for some few exceptions. Taking into account the opinions of other stakeholder groups is not holding the program hostage, is actually how the multistakeholder model works and how this group is supposed to work. All opinions (not “demands”) are welcomed in this process and are the key elements of ICANN.
