[At-Large] [GTLD-WG] ALAC New gTLD statement

[Sébastien Bachollet]

.xxx was not a special case. It was included in the last round of gTLDs.
There are other that are not yet into the root like .post.
I think we need to find a way less heavy to introduce new gTLDs.
One size fit all will take few more years if it's happen eventually.
