Re: [At-Large] Tim Berners- Lee and UK Snooping
by Carlton Samuels April 18, 2012

April 18, 2012

I saw and read it with some interesting too. Especially since deep in the story, it finally came thru that he's not really against snooping in principle but moreso about how it was managed: "He said that if the government believed it was essential to collect this kind of sensitive data about individuals, it would have to establish a "very strong independent body" which would be able to investigate every use of the surveillance powers to establish whether the target did pose a threat, and whether the intrusion had produced valuable evidence. But he said that since the coalition had not spelled out an oversight regime, or how the data could be safely stored, "the most important thing to do is to stop the bill as it is at the moment". I do share his sense of foreboding on the easy ride we give Facebook and Google in relation to this same issue. And the sense that a backlash is inevitable. - Carlton ============================== Carlton A Samuels Mobile: 876-818-1799 *Strategy, Planning, Governance, Assessment & Turnaround* ============================= On Wed, Apr 18, 2012 at 7:00 AM, <na-discuss-request(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org > wrote: > Send NA-Discuss mailing list submissions to > na-discuss(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org > > ------------------------------ > > Message: 2 > Date: Tue, 17 Apr 2012 21:33:01 -0400 > From: Glenn McKnight <mcknight.glenn(a)gmail.com> > Subject: [NA-Discuss] Tim Berners Lee and UK Snooping Legislation > To: na-discuss(a)atlarge-lists.icann.org > > > http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/2012/apr/17/tim-berners-lee-monitoring… > > > -- > Glenn McKnight > mcknight.glenn(a)gmail.com > skype gmcknight > twitter gmcknight > Http://www.globalcatalysts.com > http://newsocialmedia.wordpress.com > > >

Re: [At-Large] [IDN-WG] ALAC Response to the VIP Proposed Project Plan and Next Steps
by Hong Xue April 18, 2012

April 18, 2012

*They made one > point of clarification regarding the treatment of communities who consider > themselves ready to implement IDN Variants - that it would only happen > after the label generation toolset work is done. In their project plan > this can only begin mid of FY13. * If a community is already ready on technology, policy and management, why people in that community have to wait until mid 2013 to implement IDN variant TLDs? This conclude would actually exclude some variant-related IDN TLD applications from the first-round new gTLD program. Among six scripts under VIP study and project plan, Chinese community that is most ready on IDN variants would be most affected. If this is the truth, it should be revealed. At the end of the day, it is the ordinary Chinese-script users who suffer most from these arbitrary decisions. I assume at-large has the responsibility to truthfully reflect users' view. Actually, Chinese community is not asking for any favorite treatment, instead, they are against exclusive and discriminative treatment. BTW, variant issues are unique to Chinese scripts, not relevant to Japanese or Korean. So CJK cannot be bundled on variants.

Fwd: [soac-discussion] Globalization Survey Reminder
by Olivier MJ Crepin-Leblond April 4, 2012

April 4, 2012

Dear all, anyone who has not completed the ICANN Globalization Survey, please consider it. Deadline is 22nd April. Go to: http://questionpro.com/t/AHB7OZM7Lx(and survey questions are attached) Kind regards, Olivier -------- Message original -------- Sujet: [soac-discussion] Globalization Survey Reminder Date : Tue, 3 Apr 2012 11:56:00 -0700 De : Kurt Pritz <kurt.pritz(a)icann.org> Pour : soac-discussion(a)icann.org <soac-discussion(a)icann.org> Copie à : David Olive <david.olive(a)icann.org>, Robert Hoggarth <robert.hoggarth(a)icann.org>, Jamie Hedlund <jamie.hedlund(a)icann.org> Dear ICANN Leader: Thank you for communicating the availability of the ICANN Globalization Survey to your community earlier this month. We are getting a fairly good general response from community members. In our experience, reminder notes can improve survey responses; so will you please send out a reminder and encourage all members of your community to review and complete the survey document? Responses will be carefully considered and will impact ICANN’s planning efforts going forward. Now is an excellent time to play a role in that planning process. Thus far, nearly 500 community members have viewed or started the survey, and approximately 100 (representing all six UN languages and all five ICANN regions) have completed the document. Some respondents have advised us that they’d like to see the full survey before going to the link so that they can prepare their answers ahead of time. I am attaching a Word Format document of the survey in English that you can forward. The on-line survey is available in all six UN languages. The survey link at http://questionpro.com/t/AHB7OZM7Lxwill remain open through 22 April 2012. Any personal encouragement you can offer to increase survey completion would be most appreciated. Thanks very much for helping promote this effort. We hope that many more members of your community will participate. Call me if I can help. Best regards, Kurt Pritz

Fake Renewal Notices Report - Comment period
by Alan Greenberg April 3, 2012

April 3, 2012

I call your attention to the report on Fake Renewal Notices. There is a comment period open until April 20th. http://www.icann.org/en/news/public-comment/fake-renewal-notices-report-21m… Since this is a topic relevant to individual registrants, and since one of the recommendations suggests referring the issue to the ALAC, I believe it is essential that the ALAC issue a comment. I would be happy to draft a comment if so requested. I have opened a Confluence page at https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/gTLD+Fake+Renewal+Notices+Report. Alan
