If someone has a chance at the public forum, a registrant in .AERO (me) would like to know the status of the domain. The sponsorship agreement expired in 2006, so at this point it's operating without any contractual authority.
Of the three sTLDs that came up for renewal last year, .MUSEUM got a six month time extension in March, and .COOP is supposed to be reapproved this week, but there's been no action on .AERO since June of 2006, a year ago, when the staff was supposed to negotiate a new agreement.

It was a great pleasure to meet and finally get to meet all of you. I believe great friendships have developed, something that is just great. I believe that our time together has allowed us to develop a mutual respect and understanding of each other and the different points of view that at times we have. Personally, I think that we have far more in common then we realize. There are great challenges ahead to make At-Large, and indeed ICANN more open, transparent and effective . Working together as a team, I believe we'll be able to make a positive impact in At-Large and ICANN as a whole. in summary - it was an honor to have meet all of you. Thanks for being a great time. I look forward for all of us working together in the coming days and weeks. regards, Robert --- Robert Guerra <rguerra@privaterra.ca> Managing Director, Privaterra Tel +1 416 893 0377 ------------------------------ Message: 4 Date: Sat, 30 Jun 2007 21:16:02 -0400 From: Dharma Dailey <dharma@ethoswireless.com> Subject: Re: [NA-Discuss] status of .aero To: John L <johnl@iecc.com> Cc: 'NA Discuss' <na-discuss@atlarge-lists.icann.org> Message-ID: <D7A0204A-CB01-4AD7-8B0C-C3EA9DD5B5D8@ethoswireless.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII; delsp=yes; format=flowed I asked in the public forum, "What are the rights of registrants if a registry goes belly up?"- A much more generic form of your question- certainly didn't know all the details that you just mentioned. The answer that I got was very generic as well-- I would summarize about 10 minutes of several panelists talking as "We're working on it." -Dharma Dailey. On Jun 30, 2007, at 12:31 PM, John L wrote:

From: Milton L Mueller <mueller@SYR.EDU> Date: July 1, 2007 12:01:51 AM EDT (CA) To: NCUC-DISCUSS@LISTSERV.SYR.EDU Subject: Draft: GNSO Reform proposal
This document elaborates the ideas about GNSO reform that we discussed in San Juan. The GNSO reform proposals that were floating around in Puerto Rico have the potential to really solidify some recent improvements in ICANN, and they also have the potential to do a lot of damage if they go the wrong way. Please give this a look when you get a chance. We need to be unified and informed on this issue, and we need to get the ALAC people to work together with us.
Modifications and comments welcome. I think I will propose that once we complete this document we do some diagrams and print up a bunch for the Los Angeles meeting.
