On the gTLD-MoU web site (http://www.gtld-mou.org), the following is new or deserves mention: 1. Revision 11 of the draft application form for new gTLD Registrars is available at: http://www.gtld-mou.org/docs/apply.htm 2. A draft of the latest [Revised] Substantive Guidelines Concerning Administrative Domain Name Challenge Panels is available at: http://www.gtld-mou.org/docs/racps.htm 3. The latter is also part of (Appendix D) of a draft of the CORE-MoU which is available at: http://www.gtld-mou.org/docs/core-mou.htm 4. There have been queries about how CORE will develop the necessary repository service features. The current ideas on this are in Appendix E of the CORE-MoU (URL above). Dates mentioned in this draft will obviously need to be readjusted based on the Registrar application phase dates. 5. Appendix C of the draft of the CORE-MoU contains a draft "Registration Agreement and Application Form for Assignment of Second Level Domain Names in a Generic Top Level Domain" which would be used for future registration of domain names in CORE-gTLDs. Please note that future registrants may, in their application form, "decline a mandatory submission to arbitration."
