==> One remark:

    I would suggest to have more than one co-chair for this WG,
    the second should be in my opinion from an other region that
    the North America (this remark is not intended against Jonathan
    Weinberger which contibutions I appreciate and I vote for him).

    There is an enormous economical impact on every country
    in creating new gTLDs. Share registrars ? Incorporated and
    taxed in which country assuming that customers will be from
    every region in the world ?
    To some extent this WG is discussing about the conquest
    of the World -- but the world is not empty, is global,
    and the economy is global.

    There is also probably some ethics to be considered
    -- some mixtures of names may be offending to some cultures.
    Does it imply lists of inacceptable domain names
    not only related to the WIPO/Business issues ?

    There is also an underlying impact on the topology of 
    root servers.

    Please consider also that the silent world (non native English
    speakers) need much more time to discuss.
