Dear all,
As we did for ICANN 60 and ICANN 61, we are planning to organize a ME Space at ICANN 63.
Can you please provide your preferred topic to be addressed by the ME Space in Barcelona? I think we have several choices since we are now commenting on the preliminary report of the new gTLD subsequent procedures PDP working group (open round or consecutive rounds, Universal acceptance, Application fees, Applicant support, Community applications, etc…). We have also the Geographic names.
Also, we have the EPDP working now and we may decide to provide our opinion as a region on several parts to the EPDP (data collection, processing, transfer, retention, and access to non public data). So we have a very large range of topics that we can choose to address.
Please give your preference by Monday 10 September 23:59 UTC.
This the timeline:
04 - 10 September: Call for topics
11 September: Announcement of the selected Topic
11 - 15 September: Call for drafting team members
16 September: Announcement of the drafting team and starting of drafting the statement
26 September 1st draft of the statement published & Opening of the comment period
03 October: Closing of the comment period
04 - 08 October: Drafting of the final version
09 October: Final draft published
