===GAC Warning===
 +
All applicants for the [[.city]] TLD were issued a [[GAC]] Early Warning; 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. Germany issued warnings to all three applicants, while Australia issued warnings to only Dot City Inc. ([[Radix]]), and [[Donuts]]' Snow Sky, LLC application. Presumably the Australian representative believes that the third applicant, [[TLD Registry Limited]] has enumerated sufficient steps to protect geographic names at the [[SLD|second level]], given that the other two complaints note this lack of protection as the reason for objection.<ref>[https://gacweb.icann.org/download/attachments/22938690/City-AU-67099.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1353383163000 City AU, GACweb.ICANN.org]</ref>
