L'annonce vient de tomber. Marius Kummer passe à l'ISOC.
L'incertitude était entre Diplo, Google et Unicode, l'ICANN ayant
déjà Bachollet à digérer.
Il y traitera les sujets de l'emprivation (secret de la vie privée)
et de la privacy (protection de l'information des commerciaux sur les
personnes privées), de la sécurité cybernétique, de la neutralité des
réseau. Il prend ses fonctions le 1er Février. Nous avons peu à peu
une organisation générale du réseau (interne: IETF, financement : les
Platinum et Golden Members, application web: W3C, maintenant
entregent politique) par cette organisation à qui il ne manque plus
que l'ICANN.
Il est intéressant que cette organisation a mis en place une position
d'accueil qui pourrait convenir aux IUsers (Global Members, ou
Sustaining Member si vous payez $ 75 par an), sauf que ... ils n'ont
pas de représentant au Board of Trustees. Une approche qui serait
comparable à celle de l'ICANN vis à vis des @larges ?
Il existe toutefois une amicale des membres et anciens membres de
l'ISOC France (sans aucune relation avec l'ISOC). Vous la trouverez
introduite et référencée sous
http://wiki.isoc.fr/index.php/Amicale_des_Membres_fran%C3%A7ais_de_l%27ISOC

multistakeholder approach to policy that has been so central to the
Internet's development and is even more critical to its future," said
Markus Kummer, who will officially take up his position on 1 February

established as a uniquely credible leader on policy issues, and a key
contributor to policy discussions at the national, regional, and
