ARIN Update – 10-JAN-2012

Chris Grundemann — Tue, 10 Jan 2012 20:49:05 +0000

As a member of the ARIN Advisory Council (AC), I have to stay up to date on all of the goings on in the world of ARIN policy development (that’s kind of the point of the AC). These policy changes affect many people but are fairly hard to keep track of for most (most engineers [...]

EBERO 计划进展迅速

Karla Valente — Thu, 15 Dec 2011 02:03:33 +0000

12 月 5 日（即周一）是”信息征询” (RFI) 活动的截止日期，愿意入围新 gTLD EBERO 计划遴选活动的后方紧急注册管理执行机构 (EBERO) 候补人需要在此日期前提交申请。我们已收到来自北美、南美、亚洲和欧洲的 14 份 RFI，计划在 2012 年完成 EBERO 机构的最终甄选工作。这项计划意义非凡，因为在发生紧急情况时，它能够使注册管理机构的服务不中断，确保安全、可靠地运营服务。新 gTLD 注册管理机构可能出现无法继续运营的情况，这时 EBERO 就可以发挥作用，保障继续提供服务。EBERO 计划的主要目标是保护注册人。该计划使 ICANN 能够与选定的机构合作，提供相应支持，使注册管理机构的关键性功能能够持续运转一段时间，或是在两个注册管理执行机构之间发生业务过户期间，确保继续提供注册管理机构的关键性功能。要强调的是，如果需要使用 EBERO 服务，其服务费用将由所有 gTLD 被要求提供费用的连续性运营工具 (COI) 来支付。目前我们正在审查 RFI 答复，特别是要审查与这些服务有关的成本问题。我们希望在新 gTLD 计划启动（预计在 2012 年 1 月 12 日）前公布这些信息。一旦从收到的 RFI 答复中选出 EBERO，我们会公布被选中机构的名称。随着此计划的不断推进，我们会及时为您带来更多最新信息。我们的目的是尽可能多地分享信息，以保持整个流程完全公开透明。如果您对 EBERO 的选择流程有任何问题，请直接通过以下电子邮件地址联系我们： ebero@icann.org。 Karla Valente [...]

Carefully Constructed New gTLD Program Moves Forward

Kurt Pritz — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 02:59:38 +0000

Senator Jay Rockefeller’s introductory statement at the U.S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science and Transportation’s hearing regarding ICANN’s New gTLD Program on December 8, 2011 went right to the issue: “I think we have to get used to dot-hotels.

精心构建的新 gTLD 计划继续向前推进

Kurt Pritz — Tue, 13 Dec 2011 02:58:06 +0000

美国参议院商务、科学和运输常设委员会于 2011 年 12 月 8 日针对 ICANN 的新 gTLD 计划举行了听证会，会上，参议员 Jay Rockefeller 做了介绍性陈述发言，其中提到了以下议题：”我认为我们必须要习惯于使用 .hotel 域名。我认为我们必须要习惯于使用 .auto 域名。” 就此意见来看，对于可能愈演愈烈的在线创新热潮与竞争态势，该委员会主席持欢迎态度。而创新和竞争，也是有望在全球互联网引入数百个新顶级域名的新 gTLD 计划有必要存在的两个核心原因。 Rockefeller 参议员提醒，域名系统的扩展工作要步调谨慎、循序渐进，ICANN 方面对此表示认同。有其他听证人对此计划持批评态度，其中的一些批评言论听起来似乎也有道理，但这些批评意见已经过时，因为他们所提出的问题已在持续七年之久的计划制订过程中得以解决。会议期间，我就新 gTLD 计划的发展历程向委员会作了简要介绍，重点强调了这七年期间针对计划的方方面面所进行的题材广泛、深入细致、开放透明的讨论和辩论：通过 47 个延长的意见征询期，共收集到了 2400 条公众意见，由此编写了厚达 1400 多页的意见概要和分析报告，此外还建立了十个独立专家工作组，编写了 59 份说明备忘录和独立评估报告。在此期间，我们不断接收和考虑来自各方的意见，而且他们的建议大部分都被采纳。新 gTLD 计划的出台，是一个谨慎周密的流程长期运转的结果。来自知识产权、经济和互联网安全领域的世界级专家学者参与制定了计划中的相应解决方案，这些解决方案也经过了互联网群体的评审和各国政府部门的审核。另外，我还解释了新gTLD将实施比现有 TLD 注册管理机构更为严格的保护措施，新计划将针对商标持有者采用更为完善的保护机制。新的域名环境将大幅降低保护性注册的需求。参议员 Amy Klobuchar 和 Kelly Ayotte 表示有必要让执法机构参与此流程，并强调 ICANN 应与执法部门密切协作，营造更为安全的互联网环境。我在会议上明确承诺，ICANN 将因地制宜地尽快落实上述有关执法机构参与的建议。我提到了 ICANN 以往在制定消费者保护机制方面所做的工作，谈到了与执法部门群体的合作历史以及通过注册服务商与 [...]

Тщательно разработанная программа новых рДВУ продолжает свое движение вперед
