Applicants[edit | edit source]

  1. Amazon - The Universal Postal Union filed a Community Objection against this application.[1]
  2. Donuts (Victor Dale, LLC) - This applicant submitted a Public Interest Commitment, which can be downloaded here. The Universal Postal Union filed a Community Objection against this application.[2]
  3. GMO Registry
  4. Google (Charleston Road Registry Inc.) - The Universal Postal Union filed a Community Objection against this application.[3]
  5. WhitePages TLD LLC[4] The Universal Postal Union filed a Community Objection against this application, as did GMO Registry, Inc.[5]

Former Applicants[edit | edit source]

  1. 1&1 Mail & Media GmbH - This applicant submitted a Public Interest Commitment, which can be downloaded here. It was subsequently WITHDRAWN, however the Universal Postal Union still filed a Community Objection against this application.[6] It was the first applicant to leave the contention set.
  2. Afilias - The second applicant to leave the contention set; May 2013.[7]

GAC Early Warning[edit | edit source]

The applications from Amazon and 1&1 Mail & Media GmbH was issued a GAC Early Warning from the representative of Australia and GAC Chair, Heather Dryden. The warning system is noted as a strong recommendation on behalf of national governments to the ICANN Board that a given TLD application should be denied as it stands. Applicants are encouraged to work with objecting GAC members.[8]

The warning states that the applicant is "seeking exclusive access to a common generic string .. that relates to a broad market sector," which Ms. Dryden notes could have unintended consequences and a negative impact on competition.[9]
