Dear all , 

For 1.2.1 3-letter ASCII Combinations :

I am still under the impression that the 3-letter ISO3166 code is prohibited, primarily based on GAC Helsinki Communique : 

20160630_GAC ICANN 56 Communique_FINAL [1].pdf

Use of 3-letter codes in the ISO-3166 list as gTLDs in future rounds a. The GAC advises the ICANN Board to:

  1. encourage the community to continue in depth analyses and discussions on all aspects related to a potential use of 3-letter codes in the ISO-3166 list as gTLDs in future rounds, in particular with regard to whether such a potential use is considered to be in the public interest or not.

  2. keep current protections in place for 3-letter codes in the ISO-3166 list in place and not to lift these unless future in- depth discussions involving the GAC and the other ICANN constituencies would lead to a consensus that use of these 3-letter codes as TLDs would be in the public interest. 

The SubPro WT-5 report should have remained the same position, but please correct me if I am wrong or missing something. 

Thank you very much !  

Best,

Ching
