<div><span style="font-size:14px;color:rgb(48,48,48)">In July, members of the Country Code Names Supporting Organization (ccNSO) voted to adopt the proposed policy on the retirement of country-code top-level domains (ccTLDs). This is an important milestone for the ccNSO, and ccTLD managers had the opportunity to show their support though the voting process. The adopted policy will now be sent to the ICANN Board.</span></div>
