The Impending Internet Address Shortage
Sometime in the next 6 years, the Internet will run out of space says 
Information Week. The impending crisis that many discuss can be easily averted 
through the migration to IPv6, and sooner rather than later. The Information 
Week article covers a number of issues. One is that holders of IP address blocs 
awarded during the Internet's early days may be sitting on a gold mine because 
they're not bound by an ARIN contract, they're theoretically free to sell their 
IP numbers. They haven't done so because, among other things, there's no money 
in it at the moment. But if the IPv6 migration continues to lag and IP 
addresses become scarce, holders of legacy IP address blocs could find it 
profitable to sell their numbers. The article concludes noting “One 
controversial method for dealing with the IP address shortage has been the 
increasing use of Network Address Translation (NAT), which effectively creates 
a private network within a given IP address. ... So perhaps the Net of the
 future might evolve as an IPv4 public mesh connecting private spaces behind 
NATs. For that we have enough IPv4 space for decades.” The article notes this 
scenario runs into trouble when those private spaces try to directly 
interconnect.

ASIAN POP: Dot Community
The impending launch of .asia is covered by the San Francisco Chronicle. The 
article begins by asking “Is .asia the harbinger of -- or a bridge to -- a new 
era of social, cultural and commercial cross-pollination on the world's 
fastest-growing and most populous continent?” The article notes .asia is the 
first TLD “to be awarded to a transnational entity without some kind of a 
formal government structure.” While a large part of Europe, which uses .eu, has 
a common currency and government, none of this applies to Asia. The article 
notes Asia’s “current status is probably best understood as a hybrid between 
concept and convenience. It's an oft-repeated cliche that there are ‘no Asians 
in Asia,’ because the continent's inhabitants represent such a wild cultural 
diversity and deeply competitive history that they have little incentive to 
embrace that kind of a pan-regional identity.” However the backers of .asia say 
the Internet itself is dramatic evidence of the overwhelming
 power of imagined concepts, once they've achieved sufficient grassroots 
support. Or “put it another way: The entire Internet is dependent on the idea 
that if you believe something exists, it exists -- even if you can't touch it, 
hold it or visit it in person. ... And that's why the symbolic importance of 
giving the continent of Asia its own designated neck of the 'netwoods can't be 
denied.” As the article notes “over 60% of the world's population and 90 
languages reside in Asia ... NOW is the time for the Asian community to 
establish its own identity on the Internet.”

au: Domain name deregulation is 'damaging' (AAP)
Australia's biggest domain name registry, Melbourne IT Ltd, has warned further 
deregulation of the market would damage the quality of Australian internet 
addresses. The comments by Melbourne IT chief executive Theo Hnarakis come as a 
review gets underway into the way domain names are registered and transferred 
by the domain name regulator - auDA.

au: Melbourne IT expects to do 150% better in first half
Melbourne IT has begun 2007 well, with expectations that first-half earnings 
will improve 150 per cent over the same period last year. But Australia's 
biggest domain name registrar said yesterday further deregulation of the market 
could seriously damage the quality of Australian internet addresses.

au: Will Helen Coonan hurt Malcolm Turnbull’s Melbourne IT investment? by 
Stephen Mayne
As Malcolm Turnbull contemplates the reality of losing his seat in the 
forthcoming Labor landslide, he should take some solace from the performance of 
his investment portfolio. Malcolm’s largest stake in a listed company suterged 
above $20 million today after Melbourne IT delivered an upbeat message at 
yesterday’s AGM in Melbourne. ... However, the company is still nervous about 
pending deregulation of the Australian domain name system. There’s a pretty 
s-xy story on all this, but only AAP covered it at the bottom of its AGM 
report. I asked Theo where the political power lay in terms of any decision to 
deregulate a system that is profitable for Melbourne IT because it doesn’t 
permit on-selling and only allows applicants to lease domains which have to be 
renewed each 12 months.

prioritize key assets that need to be protected and to provide recommendations 
on how to go about doing that. The stakeholders in the IT sector include 
hardware and software companies, network and security vendors, Domain Name 
System and TLD operators and ISPs.

PPC Fraud: Every Click Counts...Or Does It?
Paid Internet advertising has soared in recent years, and it appears there's no 
end in sight for this trend. According to research by J.P. Morgan, spending on 
all forms of online advertising will reach $19.2 billion in 2007, with 
pay-per-click (PPC) advertising at Google, Yahoo and the other major search 
engines accounting for half, or $9.6 billion.

ICANN’s At-Large Process: Exit, Without Voice by Wendy Seltzer
ICANN seems to be out to re-prove Hirschman’s theories of exit, voice, and 
loyalty by driving all of its good people to exit rather than giving them 
meaningful voices. Thomas Roessler, a long-time advocate of individual users’ 
interests on the interim ALAC now suggests it’s Time to Reconsider the 
structure of ICANN’s At-Large, as he feels compelled to promise himself not to 
get involved with ICANN again.

RegisterFly Update 22 May, 2007
ICANN has been advised of a deal to transfer all names in RegisterFly’s 
management from RegisterFly to an existing accredited Registrar with a 
demonstrated record of customer service. This would be a quick and effective 
solution to many of the problems that registrants are presently experiencing 
with RegisterFly. The deal, which has been confirmed with the registrar, is a 
commercial transaction (where the acquiring registrar has worked out a 
financial arrangement to take over names managed by RegisterFly).

empire: Kevin Ham leans forward, sits up tall, closes his eyes, and begins to 
type -- into the air. He's seated along the rear wall of a packed ballroom in

Disputes (news release)
The National Arbitration Forum recently issued decisions on three separate

lawsuits, for these Internet conflicts," said Kristine Dorrain, Internet Legal 
Counsel of the National Arbitration Forum. "We're on the way to surpassing last 
year's record-breaking domain name filings." In 2006, the National Arbitration

Comment: I don't give xxx about Internet censorship
What do pornographers, devout Christians and Guardian columnists have in 
common? It sounds like a Jim Davidson punch line waiting to happen, but it's 
merely a desire to thwart Internet censorship. Two recent issues have plunged 
net censorship back into the spotlight: web guru Tim O'Reilly's proposed code 
of conduct for bloggers and ICANN's decision to, once again, reject proposals 
for a .xxx domain for porn sites. They might sound like separate issues, but 
they both boil down to the same thing: a well-meaning but utterly cack-handed 
attempt to seal off the net's 'undesirables'.

Mac Night Owl: ‘What if your Internet domain name was hijacked?’
On today’s Mac Night Owl commentary, Gene Steinberg asks, “What if your 
Internet domain name was hijacked?” “To most of you, talk about Internet 
domains is a lot of obtuse nonsense. It has nothing to do with you, or does 
it?” he says. “You see, whenever you want to set up a personal or business site 
on the Internet with a unique name, you immediately get involved with the 
domain business. Consider a domain more than just a sign on your front door, 
but the online equivalent of your physical address. If that disappears, your 
friends and/or customers can’t find you. Suddenly, domains seem a lot more 
important, right?”

Conman.com
If cybersquatter Robert Paisola is the future of the internet, then we’re all 
in big trouble: By purchasing sound-alike domain names like CNNlegal.com, 
Paisola often leeches off the reputations of brand-name outfits to give himself 
gravitas. In a lengthy letter of complaint about Paisola to the Utah Attorney 
General’s Office sent December 2006, a debt collector turned private 
investigator named John Brewington explained, “Mr. Paisola steals whatever 
appeals to him. He takes names like Trump, CNN, Sundance, IPO, Carnival Cruises 
and changes them to make his own. There is no mistaking his intent.” That 
intent, Brewington said, is to get companies to pay him in exchange for the 
domain names. “If the owners of the material make their dissatisfaction known, 
Mr. Paisola posts their names on his Website in a suggestion that they did 
something wrong.”

Rootzone-Sicherung sorgt weiter für Debatten
Bei der Einführung des Sicherheitsprotokolls DNSSEC in der zentralen Rootzone 
des DNS sollte es nach Meinung des Internet Governance Project (IGP) nicht 
einen, sondern mehrere gleichberechtigte "Schlüsselverwalter" geben. Das 
schlagen die IGP-Experten in einem neuen Papier zur "Absicherung der Rootzone" 
vor. Der Vorschlag widerspricht damit einem vom US-Ministerium für Heimatschutz 
(Department of Homeland Security, DHS) finanzierten Papier, das für eine 
zentrale Hinterlegung des DNSSEC-Schlüssels für die Rootzone wirbt. Das IGP 
präsentierte den Gegenvorschlag in der vergangenen Woche auf einer Konferenz, 
bei der unter anderem Vertreter von VeriSign und dem US National Institute of 
Standards and Technology ihre Einschätzungen zur Zukunft von DNSSEC 
präsentierten.

Kritik am Nachfolgeprozess des Weltgipfels der Informationsgesellschaft
Die beim Weltgipfel der Informationsgesellschaft verabschiedeten Dokumente sind 
zu vage und in ihren Definitionen zu schwach, um 
Entwicklungshilfeorganisationen Richtlinien für ihre Arbeit gegen die digitale

Commonwealth Telecommunication Organization (CTO), David Souter, ist dem 
gestern in Genf vorgestellten ersten Bericht "Global Information Society Watch" 
der Association for Progressive Communication (APC) und des Third World 
Institute (IteM) vorangestellt. Das geringe Interesse am Nachfolgeprozess des 
Weltgipfels, der ersten UN-Tagung speziell zur Zukunft der 
Informationsgeselschaft, belege, dass von ihm zu wenig Anstöße für die weitere
