ICANN Asks for Input on What Its Priorities Should Be

Fill out survey to (hopefully) shape ICANN priorities.

ICANN has opened a survey listing a couple dozen priorities and asking stakeholders to rank each priority as Low, High, or Very High. Examples of priorities include:

-The introduction of new top level domain names
-Introduction of internationalized domain names
-Security concerns and DNSSEC
-ICANN complying/meeting Affirmation of Commitments
-Compliance of existing contracts

I’m not sure how seriously ICANN will take this unscientific survey, but I recommend filling it out nonetheless. It only takes a couple minutes. If you’re concerned that ICANN is focusing too much energy on bringing out new top level domain names and not enough on registrar compliance, make your voice heard. (I bring up this example because a new TLD promoter has already started asking people on Twitter to fill out the survey with a priority to new top level domains. Of course, you should go with whatever you care about most.)

    Any link to the ICANN announcement of the survey? The link in the article goes right to Survey Monkey. I looked, but couldn’t find an ICANN statement.
