WGs lists rules and criterias for admission:
1. Only WG list members may write to the corresponding list, non cross-posting
2. WG should include members from all Constituencies of the Domain Name Supporting Organization.
3. We are encouraging participation from all geographic regions (defined by the ICANN bylaws , Section 6, Article V). However we do not set up limits, because in such a situation the lack of participation from one geographic region may set unjustifiable limits on another one.
4. Each WG report will be published on the DNSO website during at least 14 days for public comments.

Public comments rules:
1. Anybody may write to public comments addresses (you do not need to subscribe to comments-ABC lists), the non cross-posting rule is reinforced
2. Public comments addresses are valid during the indicated period only
