ICANN: Batching to Be Done in 3 Batches of 5 Months Each Or In One Batch Which Will Take A Year

by

Out of the ICANN Session this morning on the issue of batching, ICANN is now saying they will either go with 3 batches each taking 5 months or a total of 15 months, or they will go with just one batch which will take 1 year.

Of course the issue of batching is now back to square one and the Digital Archery program which was going to determine batching was suspended the other day by ICANN.

“This is all about quality and getting it right” said Kurt Pritz the interim head of the new gTLD program.

    Translation: ICANN Staff just wants to make it thru the week and then resume their Summer tours of Europe and beyond.

    The Applicants can wait. All of the Applicants are now in one big batch (Hot.Tub)
