Item 6: Report COUNCIL DISCUSSION – Report from GNSO chairs on our call with Subsequent Procedures (“SubPro”) PDP co-chairs, regarding the creation of Work Track 5 (WT5)
The New gTLD Subsequent Procedures PDP WG has the topic of geographic names at the top-level within its charter. The PDP WG has recently begun to consider the topic, first convening a pair of webinars in April, where anyone in the community was invite to share their input on the subject. Following the webinars, the PDP WG held a pair of cross community sessions at ICANN59 to further discuss the subject. The PDP WG co-chairs have suggested the creation of a new Work Track 5, dedicated to the topic of geographic names at the top-level. The leadership is expected to be shared equally between a leader from each of the ALAC, ccNSO, GAC, and GNSO. In early August, the PDP WG co-chairs sent letters to the chairs of each of the four community groups, seeking the identification of a Work Track 5 leader for their group.
Here, the Council will receive an update from the GNSO leadership on its recent conversations with the PDP WG, as well as discuss possible next steps.
