ccTLD(or nTLD) discussion in Manila and beyond
Kilnam Chon <chon@cosmos.kaist.ac.kr> forward$B!'(J
There will be discussion on ccTLD in Manila; APNG, BoF-TLD,(and possibly at
APNIC) as well as APRICOT.
Most discussion would be focused on governance of the internet such as
Magaziner's green papers, and the discussion on ccTLD would not be carried out
with appropriate attention(since this is a "minor" issue relatively speaking
at this moment). nethertheless, this is one of the issues we, AP community
has to handle. see the attached diagram on this matter.
i could not attend BoF-TLD and other after Wednesday Morning, 18th, i would
like for you to carry my message as appropriate. it is important to form
CENTR-like organization in Asia-Pacific, too.(we have been taking free-ride
in this area too long!).
my proposal/recommendation is
form joint WG on ccTLD among the relevant parties in Asia-Pacific;
APNIC, APNG,...(possibly expanding BoF-TLD), and have the next meeting
in summer 1998(possibly in Geneva during INET) with optional "joint"
meeting with other continents such as CENTR. if the joint WG cannot
be formed, then keep BoF-TLD for time being.
hope to discuss on this matter in Manila if we could find time.
