 Dear All:



The Expert Working Group on gTLD Directory Services (EWG) has issued
their Final
Report
<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/final-report-06jun14-en.pdf>.
Given your group's interest in this topic, I wanted to bring this to your
attention, along with the public sessions the EWG has scheduled at the
ICANN London meeting:



   - An introduction to the Final Report: EWG Overview of Final Report
   <http://london50.icann.org/en/schedule/mon-ewg-final-overview>, Monday,
   23 June, 1515 – 1615
   - Two cross-community discussion sessions:
      - EWG Final Report Discussion Session
      <http://london50.icann.org/en/schedule/mon-ewg-final-discussion>, Monday,
      23 June, 1700 - 1900
      - EWG Final Report Discussion Session
      <http://london50.icann.org/en/schedule/wed-ewg-final-discussion>,
      Wednesday, 25 June, 0800 – 1000


The Final Report fulfills the ICANN Board's directive to help redefine the
purpose and provision of gTLD registration data, and provides a foundation
to help the ICANN community (through the GNSO) create a new global policy
for gTLD directory services. This report represents the culmination of an
intense 15 month period of work during which this diverse group of
volunteers
<https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/gtld-directory-services-2013-02-14-en>
created
an alternative to today's WHOIS to better serve the global Internet
community -- a next-generation Registration Directory Service (RDS).



The EWG looks forward to discussing this with the ICANN community. Thank
you for sharing this notice broadly.


Regards,

Denise
