<nettime> ICANN Contract up Sept 30 2002 - What is to be done? |
I thought nettime readers would find the following article of interest: "September Deadline: Can the ICANN Model Be Revised?" "On September 30, 2002, the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the US Department of Commerce (DOC) and ICANN, the corporation created to private the infrastructure of the Internet, will expire. As the deadline is soon approaching, a burning question remains: Can a private entity and a public treasure be mixed?" (The public treasure is the Internet.) http://www.circleid.com/articles/2532.asp Ronda ronda@ais.org ronda@panix.com # distributed via <nettime>: no commercial use without permission # <nettime> is a moderated mailing list for net criticism, # collaborative text filtering and cultural politics of the nets # more info: majordomo@bbs.thing.net and "info nettime-l" in the msg body # archive: http://www.nettime.org contact: nettime@bbs.thing.net
