2. PUBLIC POLICY AND SUBSTANTIVE ISSUES SESSIONS
2e: New gTLD Policies: General
The GAC reviewed the work and timelines of the New gTLD Subsequent Procedures PDP and met with one of the Co-Chairs.
The PDP is aware of existing GAC advice but would like more active GAC engagement with discussions of alternative future approaches. GAC members suggested that it would be helpful for the PDP to indicate to the GAC where specific developing issues have public policy implications and where they may diverge from GAC advice; use simplified language in its working documents, given the turnover of GAC members; and provide relevant supporting information.
Several specific suggestions were made concerning support for developing countries and community-based applications.
