Dear Barrack and all,

In view of the new gTLDs revealed by ICANN, may I suggest that we include new gTLDs on the list of issues for discussion?

You will note that out of 1930 applications only 7 are from Africa.
-What are the implications?
-What strings are controversial/sensitive from a national perspective?


Best

Alice

Many thanks GG, looking forwad to interesting discourse as has been in the previous list discussions.

Best Regards
