At-Large Workspace: Registries Stakeholder Group Charter Amendments

  • The Registries Stakeholder Group (RySG) of the Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) recently amended its charter and notified the ICANN organization of its request for approval by the ICANN Board. This Public Comment proceeding seeks input on proposed amendments of the RySG charter to inform ICANN Board consideration. The RySG amended its charter to reflect its current practices, align with its operating procedures, and accommodate its evolving needs. It also accounts for best practices for the GNSO such as the GNSO Operating Procedures and the ICANN Bylaws.

    • The CPWG has decided not to provide a public comment statement for this proceeding.
