If you want to help the Internet grow, especially in
New Zealand, I would work with people in that region
to help organize the G6 TLD. Adam Todd in Australia
can probably provide more details.
More specifically, you could work on these delegations...
6:71 NZL (NEW-ZEALAND)
6:130 NZ (NEW-ZEALAND)
If you want to get very involved, you could check out
your "neighbor net" situation here:
http://www.ntia.doc.gov/ntiahome/domainname/130dftmail/unir.txt
As an example, you could view NZL as seat 6:71
in a large auditorium. You would contact the people
sitting around you. .TK might be easy to find and
also .TUV. Let's say you could locate people backing
those TLDs. Then the three of you become the trustees
for all of the TLDs in between. You might find the people
backing .NOC and then you have a complete neighbor
net because all of the seats are filled from .TK to .NZL.
That becomes your local area to grow.
6:69 TK (TOKELAU)
6:70 NOC
6:71 NZL (NEW-ZEALAND)
6:72 GARAGES
6:73 FLOUR
6:74 FIELD
6:75 TUV (TUVALU)
On the other side of you, between .NZL and .TUV
you may have more work to do. If you find out that
those TLDs (.GARAGES, .FLOUR, .FIELD) are no
longer supported you might want to change the names
and invite new people to join your neighbor net.
G6 only has 256 TLDs to coordinate. By working
together with all of the other people in that G-overnance
region, you keep the thing together. Eventually, you
will run across 6:130 NZ (NEW-ZEALAND) which
is a little closer to home. Check out the neighbor net
for that seat (6:130) and teach them how it works....
G6 will only be as good as the people there make it...
...have a ball...
