Interesting reseach on IETF
by Glenn McKnight June 7, 2024

June 7, 2024

Dr. Corinne J.N. Cath-Speth, Changing Minds and Machines: A Case Study of Human Rights Advocacy in the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) This is her PhD work, an anthropological study of the IETF. Its interesting that a number of the NCUC people contributed to the work but of the 65 interviews I did not see anyone from ATLARGE except Avri Doria who straddles both communities. Regardless, it's an interesting research paper on the IETF culture Excerpt from research [image: screenshot-fliphtml5.com-2024.06.07-12_47_21.png] Here is the Ebook version https://online.fliphtml5.com/gnel/xnou/ Attached PDF Glenn McKnight, MA Virtual School of Internet Governance Chief Information Officer www.virtualsig.org *YOUR SOURCE FOR INTERNET GOVERNANCE EDUCATION * *Mobile 437-237-4655*

ICANN NEWS NCAP Recommendations for the Next Round [ICANN SSAC logo][nj88a9rab.cc.rs6.net]<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/nj88a9rab.cc.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001HvUAIHi…> In its mission to safeguard the Domain Name System (DNS) and its users, as well as protect and secure a single, open, and globally interoperable Internet, ICANN continues to address name collisions and their associated risks. Name collisions occur when a domain used in the global DNS namespace is also used in a different namespace (e.g., private enterprise), where users, software, or other functions may misinterpret it. Imagine encountering the same name used for different purposes – that's a name collision in the DNS. The Name Collision Analysis Project (NCAP) Discussion Group embarked on a series of studies and research projects centered on the critical issues surrounding name collisions. The NCAP Discussion Group presents its research, findings, and guidance for addressing name collisions in the NCAP Study 2 report. The Security and Stability Advisory Committee (SSAC) subsequently endorsed the NCAP Discussion Group’s findings and urged the ICANN Board to adopt the recommendations within the report.
