Hi. Posting here as all 3 groups have expressed an interest in the Identifier Technology Health Indicator (ITHI) program*.

 

A briefing on ITHI was provided at the ICANN DNS Symposium. The program manager noted that a public meeting is needed as a next step before moving forward but can’t do it in Johannesburg unless a community group requests it.  If there’s space, I think it would be helpful to request an ITHI session in Jburg.  If it’s not feasible, I recommend one or more of the CSG constituencies ask for a public adobe connect session in the near future, instead, to help ensure this important program advances expeditiously, and with public input.

 

Thanks.

Denise

*The goal of ITHI is to develop metrics to measure the health of the Internet's unique identifier system that ICANN helps coordinate. As soon as those metrics will be defined, ICANN will measure and track them over a substantive period of time to see the evolution of the “State of the Identifier Technology”.
