ICANN Tries To Alleviate Concerns About Independence And Its Future by Monika 
Ermert
In September 2009, the joint project agreement between ICANN and the United 
States government comes to a close. Now the organisation responsible for 
coordinating the internet domain name, internet protocol address and protocol 
number systems is seeking to alleviate concerns about accountability and 
capture by internal or external parties like governments.

ICANN's DNSSEC root signing proposal d.o.a.? by Brenden Kuerbis
What is technical and what is political? Some of you may recall various members 
of the technical community scolding us about how implementation of DNSSEC at 
the root was a "purely technical issue" and that the world should ignore the 
governance questions and just "get on with it." This plea of urgency gained 
steam this summer during the Kaminsky attack episode, with some blaming the 
Department of Commerce as the "the show-stopper." What some technical experts 
failed to recognize was the underlying power struggle involving ICANN, the U.S. 
Commerce Department and VeriSign over the arcane business of how the root zone 
of the DNS might be signed, an important step in the implementation of DNSSEC. 
And more importantly, how the US Government is making sure this process unfolds 
in a way that keeps it in control of the root.

.CITY - Top-Level Domains for Cities are local Identity on the Internet by Dirk 
Krischenowski
The Internet has long become a fundamental channel of communications, domains 
are the main place to maintain a permanent identity in this channel. Companies 
and individuals, but also civil administration rely on domains that are easy to 
communicate, as intuitive as possible and semantically comprehensible. With the 
Internet massively spreading sensible new domains have also become a scarce 
resource within the current top-level domains (TLDs).

VeriSign's plan to sign the root by Brenden Kuerbis
VeriSign has publicly released its proposal to sign the root, which it sent to 
the NTIA on September 22. Their proposal comes on the heels of ICANN submitting 
their own (yet to be publicly released) proposal to the NTIA on September 2. 
VeriSign adds a much needed dimension to the root signing debate, introducing a 
well known threshold cryptographic technique. But the proposal's reliance on 
root server operators needs to be considered carefully.
