        <p>Hi all,</p>
        <p><br>
        </p>
        <p>At the GAC-SSAC meeting in Helsinki (Thursday, 30 June),
          after Patrik explained why SSAC was going to issue 083, there
          was some discussion on whether the dotless domain issue should
          be mentioned in the GAC Helsinki communiqué. However it was
          pointed out that GAC already took up the matter in its Durban
          (2013) communiqué (<span style="font-size: 12pt;">"</span><span
            style="font-size: 12pt; font-family:
            Calibri,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">The GAC Advises the
            ICANN Board to: a. As a matter of urgency consider the
            recommendations contained in the SSAC Report on Dotless
            Domains (SAC053) and Internal Name Certificates (SAC057)"). 
            Most countries that took the floor felt it was not necessary
            to repeat the advice in Helsinki communiqué.</span></p>

                        For those of you who do not "follow" all of our
                        Wiki pages, please note the comment I made today
                        on the Proposed Amendments to Base New gTLD
                        Registry Agreement.<br>
                        <br>
                        When I and others first reviewed the amendments,
                        we did not find much to comment on. In
                        conversations during and after Helsinki (with
                        both At-Large people and those from other parts
                        of ICANN), it became more obvious (to me) that
                        there are several issues that need to be raised
                        - forcefully.<br>
                        <br>
                        The comment period officially ends this coming
                        Wednesday, but I have asked for a week's
                        extension. We should hear tomorrow whether this
                        is granted.<br>
                        <br>
                        The registry agreement governs the core of one
                        of ICANN's main areas of responsibility. Please
                        look at the comments at
                        <a moz-do-not-send="true" style="color: blue;
                          text-decoration: underline;"
                          href="https://community.icann.org/x/uBiOAw">
                          https://community.icann.org/x/uBiOAw</a> and
                        circulate as appropriate.<br>
                        <br>
                        If there is no extension granted, we will have
                        to act very quickly, so please let us know if
                        you, in general or in detail, support the ALAC
                        making such a comment.<br>

                        Alan (taking time out from a great and peaceful
                        vacation in Finland, so you have some idea of

                        Registry Agreement.<br>
                        <br>
                        When I and others first reviewed the amendments,
                        we did not find much to comment on. In
                        conversations during and after Helsinki (with
                        both At-Large people and those from other parts
                        of ICANN), it became more obvious (to me) that
                        there are several issues that need to be raised
                        - forcefully.<br>
                        <br>
                        The comment period officially ends this coming
                        Wednesday, but I have asked for a week's
                        extension. We should hear tomorrow whether this
                        is granted.<br>
                        <br>
                        The registry agreement governs the core of one
                        of ICANN's main areas of responsibility. Please
                        look at the comments at
                        <a moz-do-not-send="true" style="color: blue;
                          text-decoration: underline;"
                          href="https://community.icann.org/x/uBiOAw">
                          https://community.icann.org/x/uBiOAw</a> and
                        circulate as appropriate.<br>
                        <br>
                        If there is no extension granted, we will have
                        to act very quickly, so please let us know if
                        you, in general or in detail, support the ALAC
                        making such a comment.<br>
                        <br>
                        Alan (taking time out from a great and peaceful
                        vacation in Finland, so you have some idea of
                        the importance I put on this)<br>
