Having heard the RSP fee part of the May 21st meeting, I have to say I’m appalled by the proposed USD 92k RSP evaluation fee. Currently, the evaluation fee for a fully new, not known, RSP for 2012 gTLDs is USD 14,300. Source: https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/msa-change-guide-15dec21-en.pdf So if the RSP fee for 2026+ gTLDs is USD 92,000, this means that the self-regulating ICANN model is establishing a significant barrier of entry for new entrants to the gTLD market, which could raise anti-trust concerns with competition authorities. BTW, consultations from other Global South RSPs already indicate that we will have less, or none, such RSPs. And since there is no ASP for RSPs, we will likely cause ASP to fail again since ASP only provides for initial costs, and the running costs will be strongly-tied to the availability of RSPs willing to provide cheaper than usual services.
