The .nxt conference organizers announced recently that they have decided to postpone the conference,scheduled for June 20th-22nd in London.

The conference was supposed to be held immediately preceding the ICANN meeting in Prague,which will be held from 24th to 29 June.

The organizers announced that the conference has been postponed due to ICANN and the delay on the TAS system.Moreover,the organizers reassured everybody that they will refund in full all hotel rooms and sponsorships and the tickets purchased will  be automatically extended for admittance to the new date for the conference.

The conference will be held at the same venue with an updated agenda later this year,most likely end of Q3 or start Q4.

Here is the announcement :

“Due to ongoing uncertainty over ICANN’s application process for new gTLDs, we have decided to postpone the .Nxt conference, planned for 20-22 June in London.

We would like to apologize to all those that have already registered for the conference, and will shortly be in contact with everyone that has registered, booked rooms and/or signed up as a sponsor.

We will refund in full all hotel rooms and sponsorships. All tickets purchased will be automatically extended for admittance to the new date for the conference. We will also be running a series of session webinars as details of the new gTLD process finally emerge. A Q&A below should hopefully answer any other questions you may have.

We have made this decision reluctantly but with confidence that the current problems with the process will be temporary. If you have any questions with respect to this announcement, please do contact us at icann-fubar@dot-nxt.com.”
