SSAC Comments on the GNSO New gTLD Subsequent Procedures Draft Final Report  (

R3)

Description:

The SSAC recommends that the ICANN Board initiate a fundamental review to determine whether continuing to increase the number of gTLDs is consistent with ICANN’s strategic objective to “evolve the unique identifier systems in coordination and collaboration with relevant parties to continue to serve the needs of the global Internet user base.” This review should be considered an input towards updating ICANN’s strategic goals , prior to launching the next round of new gTLDs, commission a study of the causes of, responses to, and best practices for mitigation of the domain name abuse that proliferates in the new gTLDs from the 2012 round. This activity should be done in conjunction with implementing the CCT Review Team’s relevant recommendations. Such a fundamental review should include at least the following areas of study based on prior rounds of the New gTLD program:

The best practices should be incorporated into enforced requirements, as appropriate, for at least all future rounds.
