[FONT=verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif]The EOI, or Expressions Of Interest in the new gTLD program, took a step closer to reality during the ICANN Board meeting on December 9.[/FONT]


The Board directed staff to present a proposal for an EOI process model. This model is to be presented to the Board during its February 2010 meeting. If approved, the EOI would then be implemented.


Although some see the EOI as a sort of fast-track to applying for a new gTLD, others worry that asking staff to work on such a plan may take crucial resources away from the main work still to be done on the actual new gTLD program. But the Board obviously took the view that the EOI would be a good way of taking the new gTLD program forward.


Staff will no doubt work on the proposals that have already been made by an informal working group, of which I was a member as an observer. These include charging a submission fee of USD 55,000, making participation in the EOI mandatory for all prospective first-round applicants and publishing all the EOI received.
