==Community Result==

On 6 October 2014 the Economist Intelligence Unit, ICANN's community priority evaluator, awarded Big Room Inc.'s .eco application priority, [https://www.icann.org/sites/default/files/tlds/eco/eco-cpe-1-912-59314-en.pdf scoring the application 14/16 points]. On 18 November 2014 the ICANN Board issued a [https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/determination-little-birch-minds-machines-18nov14-en.pdf final determination] upholding the result. Unfortunately, on October 24, 2014, approximately 2 weeks after passing community priority evaluation, the status was changed to "ON-HOLD" due to a pending accountability mechanism for Big Room, Inc.  ICANN clearly states that the entire .eco contention set cannot go into delegation while ON-HOLD and therefore, the .eco gTLD award is not final.

Nevertheless, other applications are marked as "WILL NOT PROCEED". The ICANN Board cannot delegate decision making authority according to its bylaws, and any remaining accountability mechanisms can only issue non-binding review recommendations about the Board's actions in respect to .eco for Board consideration.
