The document summarizes the multistakeholder policy development processes for three ICANN supporting organizations: 1) The Generic Names Supporting Organization (GNSO) facilitates a bottom-up process for developing global policies relating to generic top-level domains (gTLDs) such as .com. 2) The Country Code Names Supporting Organization (ccNSO) develops global policies for country code top-level domains (ccTLDs) such as .uk through a defined policy development process. 3) The Address Supporting Organization (ASO) oversees the development of global Internet Protocol (IP) address policies through the five Regional Internet Registries (RIRs) in consultation with its Address Council
