Process for Considering Comments for Two-Character Letter/Letter Labels Launched
by Olévié Kouami Oct. 9, 2015

Oct. 9, 2015

Dear all, please fyi. ICANN has announced that it will begin the first phase of the process for considering comments on two-character letter/letter domain name labels. During this phase, ICANN will request that governments and others who commented on these labels prior to today clarify their reasons for commenting. It will then sollicit a response from those registry operators whose requests for labels have received comments. All clarifications of previously submitted comments must be received by ICANN by 5 December 2015. Please read more at https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2-2015-10-06-en Thanks -- *Olévié Ayaovi Agbenyo KOUAMI* *Président/CEO de INTIC4DEV (http:www.intic4dev.org <http://www.intic4dev.org>) * *Directeur-Adjoint de O and K IT SOLUTIONS sarl (Editeur de logiciels de gestion SIGE (http://www.oankit.com <http://www.oankit.com>)* *SG de ESTETIC - Association Togolaise des professionnels des TIC (http://www.estetic.tg <http://www.estetic.tg>)* *ICANN-GNSO-NCSG-NPOC Communications Committee Chair (http://www.npoc.org/ <http://www.npoc.org/>)Membre du FOSSFA (www.fossfa.net <http://www.fossfa.net>) et Membre de Internet Society (www.isoc.org <http://www.isoc.org>) * *Skype : olevie1 FB : @olivier.kouami.3 Twitter : #oleviek Lomé – Togo* ICANN - Fellow & Alumni *Membre fondateur du RIK-Togo (Réseau Interprofessionnel du Karité au Togo)*

ICANN and Human Rights & the World Bank and Human Rights
by Sam Lanfranco Oct. 1, 2015

Oct. 1, 2015

As we struggle to determine where and how human rights fit into what ICANN is and what it does, it might be useful to read the recent report to the UN General Assembly by the UN Special Rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights, Philip Alston, submitted in accordance with Human Rights Council resolution 26/. It is short, 23 pages long, and has been used by others to describe the World Bank, in negative terms, as a "Human-Rights Free Zone". I would hate to see that label applied to ICANN. http://www.un.org/en/ga/search/view_doc.asp?symbol=A/70/274 Sam L. --

ICANN Releases Phase One Registrant Survey on the Domain Name Landscape
by Rudi Vansnick Sept. 26, 2015

Sept. 26, 2015

The message below is sent to you for your information. If you have any questions, please contact us. <https://www.icann.org/>News Alert https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2015-09-25-en <https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2015-09-25-en> ICANN Releases Phase One Registrant Survey on the Domain Name Landscape 25 September 2015 The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) today published the findings of its first Global Registrant Survey, which was conducted on its behalf by Nielsen. The study demonstrates, among other things, that domain name registrants are more familiar with new generic top-level domains (gTLDs) than general Internet users who have not registered a domain. Survey participants were questioned about their awareness of new gTLDs, as well as their perceived sense of choice, experience and trust related to the current gTLD landscape. The study completes phase one of a series of ICANN-commissioned surveys intended to inform a review of competition, consumer trust and consumer choice (CCT) <https://www.icann.org/resources/reviews/aoc/cct> in the Domain Name System. A second phase, which will be launched in approximately one year, will serve as a comparison to these baseline findings. Nielsen surveyed 3,357 domain name registrants aged 18+ in Africa, Asia, Europe, North America and South America. The survey was administered in 17 languages and participants were drawn from 24 countries. The research, conducted in two waves between February and August 2015, was designed to create a meaningful baseline of data on registrant attitudes regarding new generic top-level domains. "This survey provides us with a better understanding with how registrants view the domain name space and Internet and will help inform future reviews of the program," says Akram Atallah, president of ICANN's Global Domains Division. Along with the Global Consumer Survey <https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2015-05-29-en>, whose results were published in May 2015, ICANN commissioned this survey in response to recommendations from the Implementation Advisory Group on Competition, Consumer Choice and Consumer Trust (IAG-CCT). Among the 66 metrics <http://newgtlds.icann.org/en/reviews/cct/iag-metrics-final-recs-26sep14-en.…> [PDF, 472 KB] recommended, a subset of 11 were identified as best being measured using a global survey of Internet users. ICANN conducted an open RFP <https://www.icann.org/news/announcement-2-2014-07-16-en> and signed a contract with Nielsen to conduct the study in November 2014. The findings will be a key input for the CCT Review Team to consider. Awareness of new gTLDs high among registrants, particularly in Asia Awareness of new gTLDs is higher among registrants than among general Internet users – 65 percent of registrants reported awareness of at least one new gTLD versus 46 percent of general Internet users. Interestingly, while 65 percent of general Internet users said they had visited a domain in a new gTLD, 64 percent of registrants reported the same. Asia stands out when it comes to awareness – 70 percent of those surveyed said they were aware of at least one new gTLD. Only South America comes close to that level of awareness, with 66 percent of respondents from the region indicating familiarity with at least one new gTLD. More registrants also said they're likely to consider a new gTLD for registering domain names in the future – 61 percent versus 52 percent of Internet users. As with Internet users, the top three choices for registering a new gTLD name were .EMAIL, .LINK and .CLUB, which were selected from a fixed list of new gTLDs. Registrants generally trust the domain name industry Registrants and general Internet users generally place the same levels of trust in new gTLDs and the domain name industry, with some slight differences. Registrants are slightly less trustful (70 percent of registrants versus 73 percent of general Internet users) that entities will take precautions regarding who gets a domain name, but are slightly more trustful (75 percent of registrants versus 71 percent of general Internet users) that those same entities will give general Internet users what they think they're getting. Unsurprisingly, registrants across the board favor no or few purchase restrictions on domain names in new gTLDs. Registrants aware and cautious of abusive behavior online Abusive Internet behavior, including spam, malware, phishing and cybersquatting are a concern for domain name registrants. Awareness among general Internet users and registrants is comparable, with registrants reporting slightly more familiarity with stolen credentials (71 percent for registrants versus 67 percent for general Internet users) and cyber squatting (54 percent for registrants versus 40 percent for general Internet users.) Across the board, registrants also report more personal experience with abusive behaviors included in the survey: phishing, spamming, cyber squatting, stolen credentials and malware. Perhaps because of greater familiarity with abusive behavior online, registrants as a group reported less fear of falling victim to abusive behaviors online. To combat their concerns, registrants are more likely than average Internet users to change their Internet habits, purchase an identity protection plan or simply stop making purchases online. The only strategy registrants are less likely to pursue than general Internet users is to purchase antivirus software for their computers to combat phishing or cyber squatting. Who's registering domain names? The registrants surveyed said they primarily register domain names for personal or small business use. The survey, which was only open to those who had registered at least one domain name, showed that registrants surveyed are mostly male (62 percent) compared to general Internet users surveyed, whose male audience made up 55 percent of the consumer survey sample. Registrants surveyed also skewed younger, with 70 percent under the age of 45, similar to the consumer survey, where 68 percent of the sample population was comprised of those under 45. .COM, .NET and .ORG were the most registered TLDs cited in the survey, gaining 72 percent, 31 percent, and 23 percent respectively of the names registrants reported holding. .COM was cited most in North America with 84 percent of the sample reporting registering a name in that TLD, while only 53 percent reported holding .COM names in Europe. While 80 percent of those surveyed said they had one to five domain names registered, only 40 percent indicated they registered duplicate domain names in different TLDs, with the highest number of duplicate domain registrations reported in North America (46 percent of the sample). Nearly half (49 percent) said a TLD's familiarity was the main factor in choosing which TLD to purchase. Additional study highlights include: Registrants say a well-known TLD is a key factor in determining which domain name to purchase – more important than a reasonable price. 61 percent of registrants find it very or somewhat easy to register a domain name. That figure rises to 76 percent in North America and 66 percent in Europe. About half of registrants would prefer a cheaper, quicker, less complicated experience when purchasing a domain name, as well as a notable desire to make the process of registering in multiple TLDs easier. About the Global Registrant Survey and Supporting Materials The Global Registrant Survey was conducted by Nielsen on behalf of ICANN. The data collection phase of the survey took place from February 19 to August 13 2015, and the final report was delivered in September 2015. A total of 3,357 domain name registrants aged 18+ representing Africa, Asia, Europe, North America and South America were selected based on ever registering a domain name and being a decision maker in domain name registration decisions meaning they were aware of the purpose of the domain name and in which TLDs the name had been registered. The survey was administered in 17 languages and drawn from registrants in 24 countries. In addition, significance testing was performed at a 95 percent confidence level throughout the report. More than 700 new gTLDs have been delegated since the launch of the program in October 2013. To gauge perceptions of the new gTLDs, the survey focused on the new gTLDs with the greatest number of registrations at the time the questions were developed in January 2015 – .EMAIL, .PHOTOGRAPHY, .LINK, .GURU, .REALTOR, .CLUB, .XYZ and a regionally relevant TLD, including internationalized domain names (IDNs).

The goal of this study is to identify and define the strengths and weaknesses in the industry ecosystem within the region, and develop recommendations on how to advance the industry and bring it closer to the opportunities available. The ICANN's Latin America and the Caribbean Strategic Plan defined four key areas of interest as strategic focus for the region. Two of those, namely Capacity Building and Outreach; and Economic Issues contemplate aspects to further develop the domain name industry. The study at a minimum will investigate the current state of the Internet and the domain name industry in the region, define best practices that have made an impact in domain name market growth, look at the broader ecosystem of the Internet infrastructure and online services and describe the impact of such elements on the overall evolution of the domain name industry, describe the business potential in the domain name industry in this region, and provide suggestions on how to develop the industry and what business models can be adopted in the entire industry chain. The study will include data, analysis, and recommendations. The final report of the study is to be delivered no later than 18th April 2016.

Reflections on the IANA Stewardship Transition Process
by Rudi Vansnick Sept. 24, 2015

Sept. 24, 2015

The message below is sent to you for your information. If you have any questions, please contact us. Reflections on the IANA Stewardship Transition Process September 23, 2015 by Assistant Secretary for Communications and Information and NTIA Administrator Lawrence E. Strickling With the closing of the public comment period, we at NTIA continue to be impressed by the dedication and hard work of the many stakeholders involved in planning the transition of NTIA’s stewardship of the Internet’s domain name system. We are pleased to see so many stakeholders participate in the crafting of the plan to transition NTIA’s role related to the DNS technical functions, known as the IANA functions. Everyone that benefits from the Internet has a stake in the success of the multistakeholder model and a voice in this process. http://www.ntia.doc.gov/blog/2015/reflections-iana-stewardship-transition-p… <http://www.ntia.doc.gov/blog/2015/reflections-iana-stewardship-transition-p…> Rudi Vansnick Chair Non-for-Profit Operational Concerns Constituency (NPOC) www.npoc.org <http://www.npoc.org/> rudi.vansnick(a)npoc.org Tel : +32 (0)9 329 39 16 Mobile : +32 (0)475 28 16 32
