Join the Competition, Consumer Trust and Consumer Choice Review Team (CCT-RT) face-to-face meeting

The Competition, Consumer Trust and Consumer Choice Review Team (CCT-RT) will be meeting in Johannesburg on June 24-25, 2017, just before ICANN59 kicks off.  

Under the ICANN Bylaws, the Competition, Consumer Trust and Consumer Choice Review Team (CCT-RT) Team is responsible for evaluating 1) how the new gTLD Program has promoted competition, consumer trust and consumer choice; 2) the effectiveness of the application and evaluation processes; 3) the effectiveness of safeguards put in place to mitigate issues involved in the expansion of the domain name space. This review is one of the key inputs to the re-opening of applications for New gTLDs.

The CCT-RT began its work in January 2016 and issued a set of draft fact-based recommendations for public comment in March 2017. This meeting will help the CCT-RT advance its work and analyze the public comment received as well as results of recent research data (including DNS Abuse Study Intermediate Report). The two-day face-to-face meeting is open to all, and is a perfect opportunity for the community to learn more about proposed improvements to the New generic Top-Level Domain (New gTLD) program and hear the latest findings of the CCT-RT. The Review Team plans to issue a second draft for public comment prior to issuing the Final Report.

You can attend this face-to-face meeting in person (Sandton Convention Centre, Committee 2), 161 Maude St, Sandton, 2196 Johannesburg) or virtually participate via https://participate.icann.org/jnb59-committeeroom2
