Eeny, meeny, miny, moe. Will VeriSign control the root? by
Brenden Kuerbis
Just who will be "it" and control the secure DNS
root took another turn this week at ICANN-Delhi, when
VeriSign unexpectedly announced it would implement a DNSSEC
test bed for the root zone either later this year or the
beginning of next year. In a discussion that covered root
zone management process improvement and DNSSEC test bed
implementation, VeriSign's Ken Silva acknowledged that the
current process is somewhat of a "black box." The
20+ year telecommunications and security industry exec and
former executive technical director at the NSA, cited their
current role as publisher of the root zone and its need to
be familiar with all the anticipated components that will go
into future root zone database management as reason for the
initiative.

ICANN Friday New Delhi by Susan Crawford
Calling all interested civil society groups, universities,
and academics - please be involved in ICANN working groups.
There’s a worry - it’s a personal worry of mine, and
I’m speaking only for myself - that ICANN isn’t getting
enough input from these actors. The GNSO restructuring will
include a broadening of the “stakeholder group” for
noncommercial registrants as well as a focus on open working
groups as the atomic unit for policymaking. This means that
thoughtful, persuasive people from the noncommercial side
(as well as the commercial side, of course) will have an
opportunity to get involved in a single-issue working group
without having to navigate all the complexities of ICANN’s
structures and politics.

ICANN: Contribute to the ALAC Review by Wendy Seltzer
[Old Delhi infrastructure, a metaphor for ICANN?] Every
three years, ICANN’s bylaws call for the review of its
component parts. The GNSO review produced many good
recommendations for restructuring of the GNSO Council and
its Policy Development Process. The triennial wheel has
turned to the At-Large Advisory Committee, and ICANN,
through Westlake Consulting, is calling for input as they
consider “whether the ALAC has a continuing purpose in the
ICANN structure; and, If so, whether any change in structure
or operations is desirable to improve its effectiveness.”

ICANN grills domain-hogging Network Solutions
Is Network Solutions attempting to reinvent reality? ICANN's
looking into it. Last week, at its meeting in New Delhi,
ICANN grilled the popular domain registrar about its recent
efforts to protect/bilk loyal customers. Network Solutions
is now self-registering domains its customers show interest
in, and though it claims this is merely an effort to prevent
"domain front running," ICANN used its New Delhi
meeting to reveal that a recent investigation into domain
front running turned up exactly "zero cases" of
this nefarious net practice.

This is the second of a two-part article. Last week, the
author explored the problems which countries like Jamaica
have in protecting their names as domain names: At the
meeting of the WIPO General Assembly in September 2002, a
majority of delegations recommended that the UDRP be amended
to provide protection for country names in the Domain Name
System. The Standing Committee on the Law of Trademark,
Intellectual Designs and Geographical Indications (SCT)
continued discussion of these issues at its Ninth Session,
and delegations supported the view that protection should be
extended to the long and short names of countries, as
provided by the United Nations Terminology Bulletin.

Wikileaks domain name yanked in spat over leaked documents
A federal judge in California has pulled the plug on
Wikileaks.org, a Web site that specializes in posting leaked

Can an IPv4 stock market stave off address depletion, IPv6?
There are many uncertainties surrounding the depletion of
the IPv4 address space and the move to IPv6. Currently, five
Regional Internet Registries give out address space to
anyone who can show a reasonable need for it and pays some
administration costs. If nothing changes, that practice will
end around 2012 when we run out of unused IPv4 addresses.
One possible solution is creating an IP address space
market, allowing people who need IPv4 addresses can buy them
from those who have a surplus, so that IPv4 address space
remains available for a few more years.

Lease to Own a Domain Name by Elliot J. Silver
I was giving advice to someone today about buying a domain
name that is currently generating significant parking
revenue. The owner is using a min-site with Adsense to
generate this revenue (we’ll say $5,000 annually for the
sake of this post), and the potential buyer thinks he could
earn much more if he develops it further. The owner’s
asking price is steeper than the buyer is willing to spend
(let’s say $100,000), but I think the buyer can get
creative with his offer in an effort to strike a deal.

la lentezza del passaggio da IPv4 a IPv6. Un ulteriore
rallentamento potrebbe venire dalle future scelte dell'ARIN,
che si occupa della gestione degli indirizzi per gli Stati
Uniti e il Canada. Questo organismo potrebbe concedere agli
ISP di trasferire gli indirizzi registrati e redigere una
lista degli indirizzi resi disponibili.

ICANN: presto nuovi nomi di dominio
L’ICANN, ente internazionale non-profit per la gestione
dei vari servizi della rete Internet, sta vagliando
attentamente la possibilità di creare nuove regole per i
nomi di dominio. L’obiettivo è quello di mettere a
disposizione nuovi “Generic Top Level Domain” (gTLD)
simili a note estensioni di file. In futuro dovremo
aspettarci domini con estensioni .exe, .xls, .gif, etc. Ora
non resta altro che accettare e definire le regole per la
gestione di questi nuovi gTLD.
