For the first time since it announced its intention to apply for .PARIS in June 2008, the City of Paris has posted a direct contribution to one of ICANN's comment periods. Previous City of Paris comments were made as part of the DotCities common interest group which also includes .BERLIN, .HAMBURG, .BCN and .KOLN.

As consultant to the City of Paris, INDOM helped draft the comment submitted by Jean-Louis MISSIKA, Deputy Mayor of Paris in charge of Innovation, Research and Higher Education. The DAGv3 comment period closed yesterday, November 22.

The City of Paris comment asks for clarification on the status of city names, and particularly capital city names. It also stresses the negative impact continued delays to the new gTLD program is having on the City's drive towards a .PARIS.

ICANN CEO Rod Beckstrom has already acknowledged receipt of the comment, explaining that it would be posted on the ICANN website in order to share it with the community.

The comment is posted here.
