Re: [ga] RE: Consensus development process

["Jim Fleming" <jfleming@anet.com>]

During the "Proof-of-Concept" Phase, it may be useful to have some
common mailing lists and bulletin boards where people come to work
on the TLD(s) they are launching. ICANN may serve some of that
function. As the TLDs take shape, each TLD Community will likely
develop their own "portals", where people go to meet other SLD.TLD
owners.

This may help...
