Vittorio, The IGOs have raised the issue that abusive registrations have (1) suggested to the public that a connection exists between a domain name holder and an IGO; or (2) misled the public as to the existence of a connection between a domain name holder and the IGO. See http://www.icann.org/correspondence/gurry-letter-to-cerf-lynn-21feb03.htm If the public is being deceived (owing in part to the limitations of the .int registration process that only allows for a single IGO registration), then this certainly falls under the category of a user issue. --- Vittorio Bertola <vb@bertola.eu> wrote:

Can you fill in the gaps as to what Board-level conversations transpired?
As reported in the minutes, this was just information being provided by staff to the Board. There is no decision to be taken yet - when there will be a proposal on the table, it will be discussed.
As for the details of what happened three years ago etc., I must confess that I don't know - I've only been the Board liaison for seven months -, but I will gladly forward your questions to staff if you want me to. I am not sure about how high the management of .int is positioned in the list of priority issues for the At Large, though. Dot int is just for international and intergovernmental organizations, and personally I would like to devote as much energy as possible to the RAA revision process, IDNs, new TLDs and other issues that affect individual users. -- vb.
