<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>As
you already know, the ICANN Board requested in its meeting in Nairobi
stakeholders of SOs and ACs to develop an approach to providing support to
applicants requiring assistance in applying for and operating new gTLDs
(resolution in blue).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><i><span lang=EN-GB style='color:blue'>Whereas numerous
stakeholders have, on various occasions, expressed concern about the cost of
applying for new gTLDs, and suggested that these costs might hinder applicants
requiring assistance, especially those from developing countries<o:p></o:p></span></i></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><i><span lang=EN-GB style='color:blue'>Resolved
(2010.03.12.46), the Board recognizes the importance of an inclusive New gTLD
Program.<o:p></o:p></span></i></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><i><span lang=EN-GB style='color:blue'>Resolved
(2010.03.12.47), the Board requests stakeholders to work through their SOs and
ACs, and form a Working Group to develop a sustainable approach to providing
support to applicants requiring assistance in applying for and operating new
gTLDs </span></i><span lang=EN-GB style='color:blue'>."<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-GB style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Today,
2 ICANN Working Groups are tackling this topic: the first is addressing the
categorization of applications and has already come up with a draft report, and
the second (Joint SO/AC Working Group on New gTLD Applicant Support) has just
started its work, and its duty is to evaluate and propose policy
recommendations regarding support to new gTLD applicants in justified cases.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span lang=EN-US style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Some
of us are members of one or both WGs and I hope most of us subscribe so that
the African point of view will be reflected in the recommendations. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

(African Regional At-Large Organization) decided in its April monthly
teleconference to hold a joint meeting with the whole African community
participating in the Brussels meeting to discuss the possible support for new
gTLD applicants as per the Board resolution in Nairobi, and bring the African
point of view to the working group.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
