Thanks, Glenn.
It's an interesting article with which I can find little fault.
The comments underneath from John Curran and Karl Auerbach are also useful reading.
I note, from a Canadian perspective, the coalition of ccTLDs from Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the UK mentioned midway through the piece. This is the same alignment as the CANZUK initiative which more tightly couples these four economies, and has been endorsed by both of the main parties running in our current election. Interesting coincidence?
Meanwhile,
the body mentioned has grown considerably beyond the above four orgs (with the notable absence of ICANN and Verisign, maybe that's a feature). Maybe it can do what the IGF could not, perhaps a cause for optimism.
