Thanks Steve, I am not sure this was discussed ever: A number of applicants thought they were “clever” – and submitted TWO applications, one as “community priority” – so if they had no contention they could decide how to move forward (e.g. with the standard application, thus circumventing the community restrictions). Essentially if smth like that ever happens again I suggest the elimination of BOTH applications. Has this been discussed yet? Thanks, Alexander.berlin From: Gnso-newgtld-wg [mailto:gnso-newgtld-wg-bounces@icann.org] On Behalf Of Steve Chan Sent: Monday, February 04, 2019 6:59 PM To: gnso-newgtld-wg@icann.org Subject: [Gnso-newgtld-wg] 2012 New gTLD Program - Remaining Applications Dear WG Members, Attached, please find the remaining applications from the 2012 round of the New gTLD Program. ICANN org provided a spreadsheet that contained the remaining applications, along with basic status information (e.g., ICANN application status, evaluation result, contention set status). The WG Co-Chairs added additional information based on their analysis, as the basic status information does not provide full context; please see columns E and H as an attempt to provide some of that missing context. Notably: * In column E, we have highlighted in orange applications that will not proceed but have not yet been officially withdrawn by the applicant * In column H, we have highlighted in grey applications where we know additional information is needed to better understand the current status. This document will be discussed briefly during the upcoming full WG call but given the late delivery relative to that call, is not intended to be discussed in a substantive manner.
