New gTLD Process - updated ALAC statement
EL: There have been some public comments and some revisions to the drafts. Some individuals who had difficulties with the first draft are now comfortable with the revised version.
OCL: There were negative consequences due to a misconception that the draft Statement was actually finalized and ratified. As such, I am concerned about the use of this Statement by opponents of the ICANN process. If this Statement is to be ratified, I urge that it s redrafted in a much more positive way so it is clear that At-Large is not against the new gTLD program.
EL: How can we draft anything of any value when, the first moment a draft comes out, drafts are automatically met by 3rd parties.
CS: When we ask for something to be done we need a positive Statement. Even as we recommend that the Board looks at something, we d it in the psirit on consensus.
