ICANN taps New Zealand lawyer to replace Cerf http://www.news.com/ICANN-taps-New-Zealand-lawyer-to-replace-Cerf/2100-1030_3-6216997.html
From last week but not covered here yet:
Whois Studies Approved, Privacy Deferred http://redmondmag.com/news/print.asp?EditorialsID=9206 "A panel on Internet names voted Wednesday to defer long-simmering questions on whether names, phone numbers and other private information on domain name owners should remain public in open, searchable databases called Whois. Instead, the committee of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, or ICANN, decided on further studies, which privacy advocates consider a stall tactic after seven years of discussions so far." --clip-- - Juha-Matti _______________________________________________ privacy mailing list privacy () whitestar linuxbox org http://www.whitestar.linuxbox.org/mailman/listinfo/privacy
