> >> How to Participate
> >> There are two ways to volunteer:
> >>
> >> ?        Members ? anyone interested can volunteer to join the Work
> Track as a member, regardless of whether they are members of the ICANN
> community. Members are expected to actively contribute to mailing list
> conversations as well as meetings ? it is anticipated that the Work Track
> will meet on a weekly basis via teleconference. Members are expected to
> provide essential input to the process, orally or through written input.
> Members will be required to provide a Statement of Interests (SOI <
> https://community.icann.org/display/gnsosoi/New+SOIs>).
> >>
> >> ?        Mailing list observers ? for those who are merely interested
> in monitoring the Work Track's conversations, there is the possibility to
> sign up as a mailing list "observer" which offers read-only access to the
> mailing list. Mailing list observers will not be permitted to post, will
> not receive invitations to the various meetings or calls of the Work Track
> and will not have to complete a Statement of Interest. At any point in
> time, a mailing list observer can join the Work Track as a member simply by
> informing the GNSO Secretariat.
> >>
> >> In addition, there may be opportunities to provide input through public
> consultations and public comment processes. Note, joining Work Track 5 as a
> member or mailing list observer does not require joining or participating
> in the full Working Group, though it is encouraged.

> >> How to Join
> >> If you are interested in joining Work Track 5 as a member or mailing

> >> Background
> >> In 2005, the Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) began a
> Policy Development Process (PDP) to consider the introduction of new gTLDs.
> The two-year PDP process resulted in a set of 19 GNSO policy
> recommendations for implementing new gTLDs. In order to implement the
> policy recommendations of the GNSO, a number of draft Applicant Guidebooks
> (AGBs) were developed by ICANN staff in consultation with the community. In
> June 2011, ICANN's Board of Directors approved the final AGB and authorized
> the launch of the New gTLD Program.
> >>
> >> The New gTLD Program application window opened on 12 January 2012 and a
> total of 1930 complete applications were received. The first set of Initial
> Evaluation results were released on 22 March 2013, followed by the first
> set of new gTLD delegations on 21 October 2013.
> >>
> >> All applications have now completed the evaluation process and as of
> mid October 2017, there are over 1,200 gTLDs delegated. Although the 2012
> round is ongoing, efforts to examine the round have already begun, which
> included the initiation of the GNSO?s PDP on New gTLD Subsequent Procedures
> in early 2016.
> >>
> >> Although the original charter <https://gnso.icann.org/en/
> issues/new-gtlds/subsequent-procedures-charter-21jan16-en.pdf> [PDF, 196
> KB] approved by the GNSO Council put the topic of geographic names at the
> top level in Work Track 2 dealing with legal and regulatory issues, the
> full PDP Working Group approved the creation of this new Work Track 5 to
> focus exclusively on the treatment of geographic names at the top level.
