Need input for actions from RIPE-32
by Niall.oReilly＠ucd.ie 15 Apr '99

Among the actions from RIPE 32 are the following two for which I need input from TLD registries so that I can relay the information to the other working groups involved. Please let me know your plans and requirements. If you wish, you may of course reply to me directly. I'll summarize for the other working groups, and copy the TLD-WG and CENTR lists. TLD-32.2 [Chair] Determine DNS-SEC plans and need for support from DNS-WG DNS-WG wishes to be made aware of TLD registry plans and whether there is a demand for guidance from DNS-WG. TLD-32.3 [Chair] Advise DB-WG of number of registries planning to use RIPE whois code Of the 8 TLD registries represented at the RIPE 32 TLD-WG session, 5 indicated that they intended to use the RIPE whois code, perhaps with local adaptations. Please will other registries let me know if they have the same plan. Thanks Niall O'Reilly -------- Logged at Thu Mar 4 17:36:06 CET 1999 ---------

DNSO decision

All, The ICANN board have just held a press confeence following a closed board meeting at which, some decisions were reached on the DNSO. Both Applications ("BMW" and"Paris") were considered, along with all comment received including the Singapore Consensus document based on the CENTR principles. At the press conference, they distributed the DNSO Formation Concepts which will be posted to the ICANN Website overnight (www.icann.org). These concepts provide some structuring and mechanisms for ICANN to amend theri bylaws to recognise the DNSO. It is interesting to note that most of the CENTR princcciples are included, most notably, spearate cconstituencies for ccTLDs and gTLDs. THere will be a General ASsemblyin which anyone can contribute work but without voting rights. The Names Coucnil will act as a steering committee managing consensus and making recommendations ot ICANN. We now need to move to organising our constituency. The ICANN will call the first General Assembly meeting of the DNSO in Berlin during their scheduled meeting, 25 - 27 May 1999. AS you know, it is hoped to stage a CENTR meeting around this event giving members the opportunity to attend the ICANN events. We are off to the bar to celebrate the fact theat we no longer have to attend DNSO formation meetings :-) Fay PS DEnnis was a star! -------- Logged at Thu Apr 15 16:11:33 CEST 1999 ---------
