Agenda:

1. Validation applications

Discussed the applications received. Determined that it is not for the Launching Group to weigh the validity of an application. It is for the Launching Group to approve applications that have been submitted by the Sponsoring Organization as listed in the IANA database or on behalf of the Sponsoring Organisation by the Administrative contact as listed in the IANA database. While there may be cases with disputes, those are not factors for the LG to be considering in their determination.

The approved applications are to be indicated on the website as soon as possible.

2. Progress election mechanism

The subgroup appointed within the LG to prepare a proposed election procedure is close to finalizing their proposal and sending it to the LG for discussion. Subsequent to discussion within the LG, will be posted for public comment.

3. Feedback CENTR meeting

Those LG members at the CENTR meeting provided feedback on the meeting.

The LG members made a presentation to the CENTR audience, and discussions were held on the ccNSO, and European ccTLD managers membership.
