Summary of Submission

ICANN org fully supports the importance of a mitigation strategy for name collisions. We have concerns about the implementability of some of the proposed recommendations in NCAP Study 2. Furthermore, ICANN org would like to point out that should the ICANN Board decide to direct ICANN org to implement these recommendations, it is likely to have an impact on the resources needed for the next round (compared with those used in the 2012 round to mitigate name collisions) and might have an impact on the implementation timeline of the next round.
