ICANN has released the 4th version of the draft applicant guidebook for new TLDs:

Public comments can be made at:

http://forum.icann.org/lists/4gtld-guide/
I went directly to one of the most important parts of their voluminous documents, and submitted my initial comments regarding their continued lack of hard price caps:

Of course, more comments will be coming, as the public checks to see exactly how much of their past comments were ignored by ICANN this time around.
ICANN is swamping people with important comment periods all at the same time, by the way (and hitting the summer holidays "conveniently"). Not only new TLDs, but also RAA proposals, registration abuse policies, the expedited transfer dispute proposal, and so on. They do this intentionally, to make it impossible for the public to go into much detail on important issues. They want the public to basically "give up."
