Do you have more information on this? If you can link to it, that would be great. How much would it cost this time around?

Thanks for that link, and to (not-)answer GP's question on price:

> "While the application fee has not been determined, it will be set on a cost-recovery basis. The fee will ensure that the next round of the New gTLD Program is fully funded and does not require funds from ICANN's operating budget. As a point of reference, the application fee for the 2012 round of the New gTLD Program was US$185,000."
