Subject: Joint White Paper on new gTLDs v5

Progress on joint white paper on new gTLDs

As promised in Argentina, I attach what I hope is the final version of our joint white paper on domain names.

This version contains a new section on competition and several other edits and updates from the previous version following input from all constituencies including more detail on IDNs.

Please put it through your constituency approval process (if your rules require this) and let me have your constituency formal approval at the latest May 13.

That allows 25 days from today for an approval process to take place.

Philip
