Researchers Map the Internet [AP]
It took two months and nearly 3 billion electronic probes for researchers to 
create a map of the Internet. Now comes the task of making sense of their data 
- and figuring out what they missed. The Internet census comes from the 
University of Southern California's Information Sciences Institute in Marina 
del Rey, Calif. Over two months, ISI computers sent queries to about 2.8 
billion numeric "Internet Protocol," or IP, addresses that identify individual 
computers on the Internet. Replies came from about 187 million of the IP 
addresses, and researchers used that data to map out where computers exist on 
the Internet.

On Its Way: One of the Biggest Changes to the Internet
ICANN will launch an evaluation of Internationalized Domain Names next week 
that will allow Internet users to test top-level domains in 11 languages. “This 
evaluation represents ICANN’s most important step so far towards the full 
implementation of Internationalized Domain Names. This will be one of the 
biggest changes to the Internet since it was created,” said Dr Paul Twomey, 
ICANN’s President and CEO. “ICANN needs the assistance of users and application 
developers to make this evaluation a success. When the evaluation pages come 
online next week, we need everyone to get in there and see how the addresses 
display and see how links to IDNs work in their programs. In short, we need 
them to get in and push it to its limits.”

A Script for Every Surfer
Is the World Wide Web truly worldwide? Depends whom you ask. Since the Internet 
began, the 70 percent of the world that doesn't speak English has argued that 
the Web is inaccessible. So next week the nonprofit group contracted by the 
U.S. government to run the Internet will begin testing domain names in other 
languages.

The Internet Goes Polyglot
You won't have noticed, but yesterday the internet's plumbing underwent one of 
its most fundamental changes in 20 years. The domain name system now supports 
11 non-English languages, for the first time in their native non-Roman scripts. 
ICANN on Tuesday morning added the TLD “.test” in Arabic, Persian, Russian, 
Hindi, Greek, Korean, Yiddish, Japanese, Tamil and two flavors of Chinese, to 
the DNS's root servers.

We *are* listening to you - the proof! by Kieren McCarthy
One of the most important ways for ICANN to be both transparent and accountable 
is the public comment period. ICANN is very unusual as an organisation in that 
all of its work - even when in draft form - is put out for public review. 
Unfortunately that review system has been under-used for years. And so we have 
been trying for several months to make the process simpler, easier and more 
effective. We produced a set of Consulting Principles to make it clear what the 
system is, and a single public comment webpage to make it extremely easy to see 
what was going on at any given time. This has, we are very pleased to note, 
caused a jump in the quantity and quality of comments.

NSA's Lucky Break: How the U.S. Became Switchboard to the World
A lucky coincidence of economics is responsible for routing much of the world's 
internet and telephone traffic through switching points in the United States, 
where, under legislation introduced this week, the U.S. National Security 
Agency will be free to continue tapping it. Leading House Democrats introduced 
the so-called RESTORE Act Tuesday that allows the nation's spies to maintain 
permanent eavesdropping stations inside United States switching centers. 
Telecom and internet experts interviewed by Wired News say the bill will give 
the NSA legal access to a torrent of foreign phone calls and internet traffic 
that travels through American soil on its way someplace else. But contrary to 
recent assertions by Bush administration officials, the amount of international 
traffic entering the United States is dropping, not increasing, experts say.

Gemütlicher Start für .asia-Domain
Nach einem schnellen Endspurt zum Start ihrer Registry ist die neue Adresszone 
.asia heute gemütlich gestartet – zumindest in Deutschland. Zwar bieten eine 
Reihe deutscher Registrare die neuen Adressen bereits in der heute gestarteten 
Sunrise-Phase an. Da es aber vorerst nicht nach dem 
"First-Come-First-Serve"-Prinzip geht, sondern die bis 30. Oktober einlaufenden 
Registrierungen von Markeninhabern gleich behandelt werden, ließen sich viele 
Registrare Zeit. Manch ein Anbieter – wie der US-Hoster Godaddy – schaffte es 
ohnehin nur auf den letzten Drücker, die Akkreditierung bei der für die 
Adresszone verantwortlich zeichnenden DotAsia Organisation Ltd. zu bekommen.
