Barbara Roseman presented the report regarding the proposed redelegation of the .GS ccTLD for the South Georgia and South Sandwich Islands. There was a detailed discussion regarding the criteria for the delegation from various board members. Veni Markovski moved for a vote on the following resolution and Joichi Ito and Michael Palage seconded the motion:
Whereas, the .GS top-level domain was originally delegated on 31 July 1997.
Whereas, ICANN has received a request for the redelegation of .GS to the Government of South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands.
Whereas, ICANN has reviewed the request, and has determined that the proposed redelegation would be in the best interests of the local and global Internet communities.
Resolved (05.96) that the proposed redelegation of the .GS ccTLD to the Government of South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands is approved.
