Jared,

Regarding the Overview, a couple of very general questions/comments:

Re: Nexus scoring - score is based on the proximity match of the proposed TLD to the "name of the community". Who determines what the name of the community is? There is a later reference in "Endorsement" to the "community as defined" and points awarded for the endorsement of the "community as defined" - presumably by the applicant? Can we be clearer as to what definition applies in relation to both Nexus and Endorsement? (Scoring depends on this.)

Separately, as you know, I think that as to Nexus, the TLD name could be longer, not just shorter or an abbreviation but still be entitled to get maximum points. The example I gave on the call was for the community of wizards to propose (dot)WIZARDRY. One reason they might want to do this is to avoid the new rule on singulars and plurals by NOT applying for (dot)WIZARD or (dot)WIZARDS. Again, is the "community name" for Nexus purposes determined by a Community Priority Panel or by the applicant? If by the applicant, then the Criteria Overview should specify "community as defined by the applicant" in both the Nexus and the Endorsement sections.

Thank you,

Anne

Subject: [SubPro-IRT] CPE Stress Test Materials

Dear IRT Members,

As discussed at our session at ICANN81, we would like to proceed with a “stress test” of the CPE criteria. To that end, I’m providing some materials (also found on the wiki page), which we will discuss at our call on Thursday, 21 November 2024 at 05:00-07:00 UTC.

Criteria Overview (pdf)
Criteria Overview (google sheet) [docs.google.com]
Stress Test Materials (pdf)
Stress Test Materials (xlsx) (note: be sure to expand the rows to see the full fields/text)
Stress Test Materials (google sheet) [docs.google.com] (note: this is in “viewer mode” as IRT members should make their own copy for scoring purposes)

On our call, we will go through the instructions/materials and I can answer any initial questions you may have. Time permitting, we will also walk through the criteria.

Thank you and speak to you later this evening LA time.

Best,

Jared
