ICANN will present updates on the Registry Service Provider (RSP) Evaluation Program and Registry System Testing (RST) 2.0 which together evaluate that RSPs can operate a gTLD in a stable and secure manner. As part of ICANN's New Generic Top-Level Domains (gTLD) Program: Next Round, the RSP Evaluation Program is intended to reduce the cost and time involved in evaluating new gTLDs. RSPs that want to be evaluated through the program are invited to join this interactive session to ask questions about the process, the significance of the RSP Pre-Evaluation taking place now, and the RSP Evaluation Program that will take place concurrent with the application submission period for new gTLDs.
