There must be a confusion, Christopher? This issue was on the ALAC call agenda earlier today but is not on the EURALO call agenda for tonight (in about 30 minutes).

Best, Wolf

>1.	"Substantial Public Interest Deficiencies": In such cases, the ultimate custodian of the public interest IS the ICANN Board, as advised by At Large and the GAC.

>The idea that ICANN can do whatever it likes and then pass off the Public Interest to PABs and such like is absurd (particularly in view of the PICs).

>2.	Should anything like this go ahead, the costs of PABs must be fully born by ICANN, NOT by the new gTLD applicants. Should ICANN wish to recover the costs from the gTLDs concerned, that is their affair.
>
>3.	"PAB applicants who are NOT accepted … " Oops! Who, exactly is going to be doing the accepting, or not of the membership of these PABs?
>	So, we might also have a 'neutral third party' ombudsman lurking in the background.  Again, if we go down that road, ICANN should pay all costs, and eventually recover from the gTLDs concerned.
