We have good news! We have had so many volunteers for the new gTLD working group that we actually need to take a vote! We have had 6 volunteers so far and we need to choose two. Since TAS has been delayed, this has left us with a little more breathing room. Here is the schedule that the ALAC has given us: 14 May 2012 - all RALO candidates need to have their SOI/COI published 16 May 2012 - RALOs who need to conduct a Bigpulse vote can do so, closing 21 May 2012 18 May 2012 - volunteers to be chosen by the ALAC need to have their SOI/COI published 22 May 2012 - ALAC monthly call ratifies the candidates recommended by the RALOs 23 May 2012 - ALAC conducts a Bigpulse vote to choose the third candidates 29 May 2012 - vote results published So, any all that have volunteered must have their SOIs and COIs sent to the discussion list no later than May 14, 2012. This also leaves room for others to volunteer, if they would like. Once we have all of the names and pertinent documents, the Bigpulse vote will start and follow the schedule as shown above. Thank you EVERYBODY that has shown so much interest!
