I'm surprised that I've yet to see any mention here on NANOG about the Internet Governance Forum discussions that were held at the WSIS / United Nations summit in Tunisia a few weeks ago. From my reading of the various articles, it appears that the EU together with some developing nations wanted to wrest "control of the Internet" away from the US and ICANN. Was everyone unaware of this, or were you just counting on Vint Cerf to talk sense into the delegates from the other countries? <http://news.com.com/U.N.+says+its+plans+are+misunderstood/200 8-1028_3-5959117.html> Then there was ICANN's sudden delay of discussion/approval of .xxx: <http://news.google.com/news?q=icann+xxx> followed by their approval of .asia: http://news.google.com/news?q=icann+asia Is anyone here paying any attention to any of this? jc
I'm on the 2006-2009 NRO Address Supporting Organization Advisory Council (www.nro.com) (www.aso.icann.org) and was at the Vancouver meeting. There were quite a few people from the NANOG community at the ICANN meeting in Vancouver. I would think that ICANN is off topic for NANOG? -M<
