Osvaldo Sorry for chipping in late. My response tends to align with Mikeys on points 1 and 3 and I guess I feel a little stronger against fee reductions for other entities.

In general there was no support to waive the fees of the TMCH fro the IGO and INGO. With respect to these specific questions: 1.- I dont have the background on the GAC and ALAC standing for filing objections, though I understand the reason for GACs. I would support waiving the fees for the qualifying IGOs and INGOs. 2.- The same 3.- I dont understand the question, maybe due to some translation issue. It seems to mean that the IGO or INGO that has an objection would have to go through the GAC. If this is the case, it would be a GAC issue and I dont think the GSO or its members would have anything to say about it.

We ask that the WG stakeholders respond to the following questions in the context that an organizations identifiers would not be placed on a reserved names list or listed in the Applicant Guidebook as ineligible for registration: 1. Is there support for IGO, IOC, and RCRC to have equivalent standing similar to the GAC and ALAC for filing objections against top-level applications for gTLDs? (Note that there is no charge of a filing fee for that GAC and ALAC) 2. If there is no support for equivalent standing, is there support for a fee reduction for filing objections to new gTLD applications by IGO, IOC, and RCRC? 3. If there is no support for either concept, what are your thoughts about the organizations seeking protection to collaborate with the GAC for gTLD applications where an objection is being considered? We will discuss this topic at our 8 May 2013 conference call. Thank you for your input.
