The Final Report highlights the latest topics and issues that need to be considered in developing (1) a mechanism for the selection of the IDN ccTLD string and (2) a mechanism to designate an IDN ccTLD manager. The ICANN Board of Directors accepted the Final report at its 26 June meeting in Paris, France and directed that the report be made available for public comments. http://icann.org/en/announcements/announcement-15jul08-en.htm Anti-Phishing and Hong Kong Planning for a short trip to Hong Kong tomorrow reminded me of Jonathan Shea, something I wanted to blog about but was waiting for the hype around the new generic Top-Level Domains (TLDs) to cool down.

Caren runs Marlboro (N.J.)-based Expressions Photo Design, and ilovephotogifts.com, her Web site, regularly lands among the first listings for anyone Googling "unique photo gifts," the keywords she thinks potential customers are using in searches. It wasn't always that way. Caren's previous Web site, expressionspb.com, used to get buried in search results. Caren didn't know how she could improve her standing—a process called search engine optimization, or SEO for short—and approached the Web designer who built her site. When that proved fruitless, Caren took an SEO class online and started hanging out in online SEO forums. Pretty soon, she says, "I decided to redo my site entirely. Instead of leaving it up to someone else, I did it myself, and I could not be happier with the results." http://businessweek.com/magazine/content/08_66/s0806026852445.htm Reflecting on Paris Domainer Meeting The two-day Domainer Meeting in Paris last month was a very enjoyable and rewarding conference that I was fortunate enough to attend.

Ziel war es einerseits die Streitkosten zu senken, andererseits aber auch die einfache und schnelle Durchsetzung eines Urteils zu gewährleisten.

Dall’inizio dell’anno le registrazioni di nuovi domini .it non sono mai state inferiori alle 25mila al mese; maggio (30.243) ha segnato addirittura il record degli ultimi otto anni.

Lo rende noto oggi il Consortium Garr, che si e' occupato della sperimentazione del nuovo protocollo per l'Italia. http://www.studiocelentano.it/d.asp?id=42170&opt=tlc http://notizie.alice.it/notizie/scienze_e_tecnologie/internet/2008/07_luglio/14/internet_italia_pronta_a_ipv6,15434356.html http://news.excite.it/hitech/internet/561861 http://www.ansa.it/site/notizie/awnplus/internet/news/2008-07-14_114244140.html L'Ipv6? L'Italia è pronta al nuovo protocollo Pensare che internet sia infinito è sbagliato. Così come ha una fine lo spazio web, anche gli indirizzi Ip (gli identificativi dei pc) potrebbero essere vittime del sovraffollamento. Più gente si connette e più indirizzi Ip servono. I "passapaporti" per accedere al web un giorno potrebbero esaurisri. http://www.ilmessaggero.it/articolo.php?id=27654 Garr: l'Italia è pronta per l'IPv6 Il GARR ha promosso l'Italia e il suo impegno per l'IPv6 spiegando che il passaggio al nuovo protocollo è cosa fattibile già da subito, il tutto in largo anticipo rispetto alla scadenza fissata al 2010 dalla Commissione Europea. http://business.webnews.it/news/leggi/8798/garr-litalia-e-pronta-per-lipv6/ IPv6, la rete GARR è pronta L'invito del commissario europeo alle telecomunicazioni Viviane Reding non è caduto nel vuoto. Un mese fa la Commissione aveva richiamato l'attenzione sul problema degli indirizzi IP, ormai prossimi all'esaurimento: l'unica soluzione possibile è il passaggio dall'attuale IPv4 al nuovo e più moderno IPv6. Un passaggio che, tuttavia, negli ultimi anni ha stentato a prendere abbrivo, e che dunque va imposto con una decisa sterzata. Dall'Italia risponde il Consortium GARR, che alla UE fa sapere: siamo già pronti. http://punto-informatico.it/p.aspx?i=2356453 http://www.azpoint.net/internet/tecnologie/16425/IPv6-la-rete-del-GARR-gi-pronta.asp IPv6: GARR in anticipo rispetto agli obiettivi europei del 2010. Dopo l’allarme sulla scarsa disponibilità di indirizzi IP, la Commissione Europea ha fissato per il 2010 l’obiettivo di supportare il nuovo protocollo IPv6. In Italia, la Rete della Ricerca e dell’Istruzione gestita dal Consortium GARR è già interamente compatibile con l’IPv6 ed il nuovo protocollo coesiste con la precedente versione IPv4. http://www.i-dome.com/flash-news/pagina.phtml?_id_articolo=12707-IPv6-GARR-in-anticipo-rispetto-agli-obiettivi-europei-del-2010..html Garr supporta il protocollo IPv6 A seguito dell'allarme lanciato dalla Commissione Europea sull'inevitabile esaurimento di indirizzi IP disponibili, infatti, è stato fissato il termine del 2010 per dare pieno supporto al protocollo IPv6. http://www.giornaletecnologico.it/hitech/200807/16/487c7c6e0588f/ Strumenti di test per l'IPv6 Alcuni ricercatori europei hanno sviluppato una serie di test per consentire una verifica di compatibilità del software con il protocollo IPv6. Come ci informa un articolo di ICT Results, prima che le aziende possano rendere commercialmente disponibili i loro prodotti IPv6 compatibili, questi devono superare delle prove di prestazioni, compatibilità e interoperabilità, ma le suite di test attualmente esistenti hanno sovente costi proibitivi. http://www.programmazione.it/index.php?entity=eitem&idItem=39782 Dominio di terzo livello ... incognite sulla responsabilità.
