TAS Interruption - Update (9 May 2012)
 Statement by Akram Atallah, COO
  9 May 2012

As we announced yesterday, ICANN has provided notice to all users to let
them know whether they may have been affected by the technical glitch in
the TLD application system, or TAS.

We sent an email<http://newgtlds.icann.org/en/announcements-and-media/notification-template-1-08may12-en.pdf>[PDF,
41 KB] to each TAS user asking them to log in to the notification
system and view whether they may have been affected. Notifications were
delivered to the 1,275 registered TAS users in four categories.

The categories, along with links to the corresponding notification
template, break down as follows:

   1. Users who did not have file names or usernames
viewed<http://newgtlds.icann.org/en/announcements-and-media/notification-template-2-08may12-en.pdf>[PDF,
72 KB]: 1,163
   2. Users who had one or more file names and/or user names that may have
   been viewed by another
user<http://newgtlds.icann.org/en/announcements-and-media/notification-template-3-08may12-en.pdf>[PDF,
73 KB]: 72.
   3. Users who may have seen the file names and/or usernames of one or
   more other users<http://newgtlds.icann.org/en/announcements-and-media/notification-template-4-08may12-en.pdf>[PDF,
73 KB]: 30.
   4. Users who had one or more file names and/or user names that may have
   been viewed, and who also may have been able to see file name and/or
   username information of other
users<http://newgtlds.icann.org/en/announcements-and-media/notification-template-5-08may12-en.pdf>[PDF,
75 KB]: 10.

Users whose file names and/or user names may have been viewed were provided
with the details of the relevant information.

As we announced yesterday, we are targeting 22 May 2012 as the intended
reopening date for TAS, and anticipate a 30 May closing.

We understand and regret the inconvenience that the glitch has caused.
