| Is this being requsted as a ccTLD or as gTLD? If ccTLD - it breaks the | existing model of ccTLDs limited to countries or islands and not | representing regions. This is just a manifestation of the European Union as a proper state, which obviously some people will accept with fewer reservations than others. If one can accept that the EU has competence in other international bodies as a state or state-like entity, then .EU as a ccTLD seems straightforward. Sean.

.EU and EUPOC - www.eupoc.org
by Stephen Dyer 16 Feb '01

16 Feb '01

Hi All, The .EU domain name, sought from ICANN by the European Commission, has been in discussion for over a year now. To date no Charter has been proposed for the name and Commission representatives have indicated that policy should come through dialogue with the European Internet Community. In an attempt to move this process on I have produced a draft Charter for an .EU Policy Oversight Committee which is visible in English, French and German at www.eupoc.org. I would be most grateful for suggestions for improvement of this document and also for your support for the principle of involvement of the wider Internet community in policy matters. There is a support page on the site. I hope an improved version of this Charter will be discussed at the EC-POP meeting in Brussels on March 1st 2001. Thank you for your attention. Please feel free to contact me directly if you have specific questions. Regards Steve Dyer Chairman CentralNic

Vaio power supply "chris" switched
by Ronald van der Pol 24 Jan '01

24 Jan '01

Chris, Today I attended the IPv6 working group meeting at RIPE 38. I left my power supply in the room during the coffee break. When I returned and tried to reconnect I could not find my power supply again. I used another one in the same outlet. It has "chris" on it. I suppose you took mine instead of yours. Could we please switch them again (you will understand why :-). I will be at the meeting the whole week. Thanks, rvdp This is a test message. Sent for some tests and maintenance of our software.
