Dear Terri,
I hope this email finds you well.
I am writing to seek clarification on the Statement of Interest (SOI) requirements for the Standing Predictability Implementation Review Team (SPIRT).
I am an employee of Alibaba, which operates existing new gTLDs and is a potential applicant in the next round of new gTLD applications. As I prepare my SOI for SPIRT, I want to ensure I make the correct declaration regarding my affiliation and my employer's potential interest.
Could you please provide guidance on the following points:
  • How should I properly declare my employment with a potential new gTLD applicant in my SOI?
  • Would such a declaration affect my work or level of participation in the SPIRT moving forward?
I am eager to contribute to the important work of the SPIRT and want to ensure full transparency from the outset. Your guidance on how to navigate this situation correctly would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time and assistance.
Best regards,
Jin
