Affiliated Stakeholder Groups

Due to the structure of RySG and ICANN following the start of the New gTLD Program, applicants who would potentially become registries if their applications were approved were allowed to join RySG as Observer members. To better represent their own unique perspectives within ICANN, they formed their own Stakeholder Group, the New Top-Level Domain Applicant Group (or NTAG], organized as a Stakeholder Group under RySG. There are smaller groups inside of NTAG as well, created to better represent their members: the Community Top-Level Domain Applicant Group (CTAG) and the Geographic Top-Level Domain Applicant Group (GeoTAG). At the moment, these are much more informal groups.
