Call for Presentations 40th TechDay at ICANN 66 in Montréal The ICANN Tech Working Group is again planning a technical workshop at the ICANN 66 meeting in Montréal on Monday 2019-11-04 The TechDay workshop has been a part of ICANN meetings since 2006 and has provided a forum for both experienced and new people to meet, present and discuss technical topics related to registry and DNS work and security. We are specially interested in: 1. Planning for the Worst We all know classic advice to have off-site backup or secondary data centers. What measure can be taken to lessen the impact when disaster hits? Is it fine to let the registration system fail, while you concentrate on keeping DNS service alive? But what about when disaster does not hit you, but affects registrants somewhere else in the world? Do you extend the registration period, to prevent domains from expiring while they recover? We are interested in presentations on how registries prepare themselves for disaster, and especially encourage registries, that were struck by disaster, to share their experiences. 2. DNS Abuse As this is going to be one of the High Interest Topics for the Meeting we are quite interested in hearing from a technical perspective. 3. In addition, we welcome suggestions for additional topics, such as; * DNS over TCP, DNS over HTTPS If you are interested in presenting, please email ccNSO-techday@icann.org We hope that you can join us and request that you disseminate this Request to other lists where it might of interest. greetings, el -- Dr. Eberhard W.
