Sessions edit

ccNSO edit

The ccNSO Council established a study group to provide a comprehensive overview of the risks associated with the use of emoji in second-level domains as documented in SAC095 and current practices by ccTLD managers when accepting emoji in second-level domains. The ccNSO also discussed the administrative issues the ccTLD community and ICANN face with invoicing of voluntary contributions. The goal was to make the contribution process more predictable for both ccTLDs and ICANN.
