Google verliert Namensstreit mit Froogles
Ein Schiedsgericht der Internet- und DNS-Verwaltung
ICANN hat am Freitag die Klage des
Suchmaschinenbetreibers abgewiesen, die Domain
Froogles.com würde das Warenzeichen Google verletzen.
Demzufolge unterscheide sich der Name eindeutig von
dem der Suchmaschine. Unter dieser Internet-Adresse
ist seit März 2001 das Shopping-Portal Froogles des
Geschäftsmanns Richard Wolfe zu erreichen. Schon vor
der Registrierung der Domain-Adresse ließ er prüfen,
ob der Name irgendwelche Rechte verletze. Dem jetzigen
Urteil zufolge darf er seine Website weiter betreiben.

The Site Finder Reprise
I have been attending the Icann conference in Malaysia
this week. One of the key events was the submission of
the report from the Security & Stability Advisory
Committee regarding Site Finder. In reading the
committee's report I discovered what I believe is an
incredible breakdown in logic and as a consequence, a
very mistaken, or at least confused, set of
conclusions. So, why do I say that?

Secret Services Likely to Grab .UA Domain - Hostmaster
Director Mostovy
The international community is concerned about the
government decision to attribute the management of the
.UA domain name to security services. The government
and secret services may grab .UA ccTLD to receive a
"magic button", which can allow them to shut down any
offensive Ukrainian web-site in minutes, and give them
full control on the Ukrainian Internet content and,
consequently, the control on the Ukrainian Internet
community as whole, according to the letter of
B.Mostovy, director general of Hostmaster Ltd., the
current administrator of the .UA domain.

Internationalized Domain Names Open Obligation,
Opportunity
Much of the discussion at ICANN's recent meetings in
Kuala Lumpur focused on Internationalized Domain Names
and the use of local languages and characters,
promoting the addition of a range of character sets
without damaging the end-to-end interworking of
today's Internet, which is limited mainly to
specifically coded Latin characters.

ICANN sucht noch Kandidaten

der Chef des Nominierungskomitees, der
France-Telecom-Manager Jean-Jacque Damlamian, die Zahl
der Kandidaten für die zu besetzenden drei
Vorstandssitze und weitere ehrenamtliche Posten
innerhalb der ICANN sei noch zu klein. Für die

La ICANN quiere una IP por persona
Así lo anunció el pasado día 20 de julio, ya que desde
ese día y por primera vez las direcciones IPv6 serán
añadidas a los servidores DNS raíz de Internet. Con el
propósito de posibilitar la asignación de múltiples
IPs a personas y dispositivos de todo el mundo. IPv6
es la siguiente generación del protocolo de internet y
proporciona trillones de direcciones más que el actual
sistema en uso IPv4.

ICANN annuncia: IPv6 è realtà
L'annuncio arriva dal meeting ICANN di Kuala Lumpur e
