APRALO Candidates for the ABSC
by ICANN At-Large Staff Feb. 5, 2010

Feb. 5, 2010

Dear All, The At-Large Selection design team is seeking candidatures from APRALO for the At-Large Board Member Selection Committee (ABSC). The ABSC will assist the At-Large Director process by revising the At-Large Board member candidatures and creating a short-list for the At-Large Board Member election. The ABSC will be composed of two representatives from each ICANN region and a Chair. All ABSC members will need to confirm their willingness and ability to dedicate significant time to the process. You may find a list of ABSC candidates from all At-Large regions under https://st.icann.org/alac-docs/index.cgi?at_large_board_selection_committee If you are interested in joining the ABSC, please reply to this message. Thank you. ********* What will the ABSC be doing exactly? The ABSC is tasked with creating a public list of candidates for the At-Large Board member position. To do so, the ABSC will not just passively wait to hear from interested At-Large insiders, but will also identify and solicit candidacies from people who would qualify and may be seen to fulfill the positions. There should be a diversity of choices in the list of candidates for the At-Large Board member, but qualified people should not be excluded because there are "too many" from any one region, gender, or other relevant characteristic. Through a process of questionnaires and/or interviews, the ABSC would reduce the total list of applicants to some “small” number of candidates. All documents and deliberations of the ABSC shall be confidential and this confidentiality shall continue past the existence of any particular ABSC. -- Regards, Heidi Ullrich, Matthias Langenegger, Gisella Gruber-White, Marilyn Vernon, Kristina Nordström ICANN At-Large Staff email: staff[at]atlarge.icann.org website: www.atlarge.icann.org

Jan. 22, 2010

_______________________________________________________________________ Two /8s allocated to APNIC from IANA (1/8 and 27/8) _______________________________________________________________________ The information in this announcement is to enable the Internet community to update network configurations, such as routing filters, where required. APNIC received the following IPv4 address blocks from IANA in January 2010 and will be making allocations from these ranges in the near future: 001/8 027/8 Reachability and routability testing of the new prefixes will commence soon. The daily report will be published at the usual URL: http://www.ris.ripe.net/debogon For more information on the resources administered by APNIC, please see: http://www.apnic.net/db/ranges.html For information on the minimum allocation sizes within address ranges administered by APNIC, please see: http://www.apnic.net/db/min-alloc.html Please be aware, there are now just twenty-four /8s remaining in IANA's unallocated IPv4 address pool. Thank you for your cooperation.

Less than 10% of IPv4 Addresses Remain Unallocated, says Number Resource Organization
by Karaitiana Taiuru Jan. 20, 2010

Jan. 20, 2010

FYI http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQ3UktpT_D8 AND _______________________________________________________________________ Less than 10% of IPv4 Addresses Remain Unallocated, says Number Resource Organization _______________________________________________________________________ Deploying IPv6 - the next generation of the Internet Protocol - is vital to the continued development of the Internet AMSTERDAM - The Number Resource Organization (NRO), the official representative of the five Regional Internet Registries (RIRs) that oversee the allocation of all Internet number resources, announced today that less than 10 percent of available IPv4 addresses remain unallocated. This small pool of existing IP addresses marks a critical moment in IPv4 address exhaustion, ultimately impacting the future network operations of all businesses and organizations around the globe. "This is a key milestone in the growth and development of the global Internet," noted Axel Pawlik, Chairman of the NRO. "With less than 10 percent of the entire IPv4 address range still available for allocation to RIRs, it is vital that the Internet community take considered and determined action to ensure the global adoption of IPv6. The limited IPv4 addresses will not allow us enough resources to achieve the ambitions we all hold for global Internet access. The deployment of IPv6 is a key infrastructure development that will enable the network to support the billions of people and devices that will connect in the coming years," added Pawlik. Internet Protocol is a set of technical rules that defines how devices communicate over a network. There are currently two versions of IP, IPv4 and IPv6. IPv6 includes a modern numbering system that provides a much larger address pool than IPv4. With so few IPv4 addresses remaining, the NRO is urging all Internet stakeholders to take immediate action by planning for the necessary investments required to deploy IPv6. The NRO, alongside each individual RIR, has actively promoted IPv6 deployment for several years through grassroots outreach, speaking engagements, conferences and media outreach. To date, their combined efforts have yielded positive results in the call to action for the adoption of IPv6. Given the less than 10 percent milestone, the NRO is continuing its call for Internet stakeholders, including governments, vendors, enterprises, telecoms operators, and end users, to fulfill their roles in IPv6 adoption, specifically encouraging the following actions: The business sector should provide IPv6-capable services and platforms, including web hosting and equipment, ensuring accessibility for IPv6 users. Software and hardware vendors should implement IPv6 support in their products to guarantee they are available at production standard when needed. Governments should lead the way by making their own content and services available over IPv6 and encouraging IPv6 deployment efforts in their countries. IPv6 requirements in government procurement policies are critical at this time. Civil society, including organizations and end users, should request that all services they receive from their ISPs and vendors are IPv6-ready, to build demand and ensure competitive availability of IPv6 services in coming years. The NRO's campaign to promote the next generation of Internet Protocol continues to positively impact the Internet community. IPv6 allocations increased by nearly 30% in 2009, as community members continued to recognize the benefits of IPv6. "Many decision makers don't realize how many devices require IP addresses - mobile phones, laptops, servers, routers, the list goes on," said Raul Echeberria, Secretary of the NRO. "The number of available IPv4 addresses is shrinking rapidly, and if the global Internet community fails to recognize this, it will face grave consequences in the very near future. As such, the NRO is working to educate everyone, from network operators to top executives and government representatives, about the importance of IPv6 adoption," added Echeberria. IP addresses are allocated by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA), a contract operated by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). IANA distributes IP addresses to RIRs, who in turn issue them to users in their respective regions. "This is the time for the Internet community to act," said Rod Beckstrom, ICANN's President and Chief Executive Officer. "For the global Internet to grow and prosper without limitation, we need to encourage the rapid widespread adoption of the IPv6 protocol." ________________________________________________________________________ APNIC Secretariat secretariat(a)apnic.net Asia Pacific Network Information Centre (APNIC) Tel: 61 7 3858 3100 PO Box 2131 Milton, QLD 4064 Australia Fax: 61 7 3858 3199 Level 1, 33 Park Road, Milton, QLD http://www.apnic.net ________________________________________________________________________ Karaitiana Taiuru Ph/SMS: +64 21 070 7507 Web: <file:///C:/Users/KARAIT~1/AppData/Local/Temp/www.taiuru.maori.nz>www.taiuru.maori.nz | Blog: <http://taiuru.maori.nz/blog/>http://taiuru.maori.nz/blog/ | Tel: <http://ktaiuru.tel>http://ktaiuru.tel Email karaitiana(a)taiuru.maori.nz | Skype/MSN/GoogleTalk ktaiuru | AIM/Yahoo KaraitianaTaiuru Twitter: @ktaiuru Bio: <http://www.linkedin.com/in/ktaiuru>http://www.linkedin.com/in/ktaiuru PO Box 10286 Christchurch 8145 New Zealand
