Why waste time on some Australians headed to Europe?
Ah, Milton wants another pork-funded trip to play soccer. Amazing the priorities of academics with
way too much time on their hands.

ICANN Approves .hill Domain for Hillbillies
http://www.watleyreview.com/2005/060705-3.html
The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), the oversight group for the World Wide Web, has begun negotiations that could lead to the establishment of a separate domain for hillbilly sites. ICANN said it has begun to have "commercial and technical negotiations" with West Virginia internet registry Grandma's Guns-N-Jerky Inc. (GGNJ) about establishing a top-level domain, or TLD, that would bear the suffix .hill.

Milton, I'm surprised to see you write: ...time is running out on unrestricted access to Whois data... This is news to me. I thought those wanting a less public WHOIS were in the (presumably losing) minority insofar as ICANN is concerned. -g

WHOIS and $50 WIFI Router with DYNDNS.WS
Note: The new wave of Virtual ISPs (vISPs) use
the DYNDNS.ORG feature in the WIFI Routers for
their own **internal** naming and numbering.
The consumer does not know it is there, just
like their DSL PPPOE account and login. The
minimal whois information in the DYNDNS database
points to the Virtual ISP. Some call this lock-in.
Consumers like it because they just want it to
work.

There is nothing currently preventing anyone with a domain from giving out subdomains with any policy they chose.
Granted yourdomain.2d4.com isn't as nice as yourdomain.com, but it could (theoretically) be yours without the need for any whois entry.
What happens when someone starts doing this, do they pull the plug on the SLD?

"Suzanne Sene [U.S. DOC], the Government Advisory Committee liaison to the GNSO Council, informed the council of an invitational working session, intended for all GAC members, with invitation to the Councils of the relevant ICANN Supporting Organizations, relevant ICANN staff and invited guest speakers/participants. The aim was to
broaden understanding of the diverse aspects of domain name and IP address data maintained by registries and registrars, the public display of this data via WHOIS services, and the impact of the data on combating illegal activities on the Internet. The session would not be open to other attendance and was planned for Sunday 10 July, 2005 from 14:00 to 18:00."
Kurt Pritz agreed and said that ICANN also felt a sense of urgency driven by the MoU with the Department of Commerce coming to a close. The present sTLD round has raised a series of complex issues that needed to be resolved by economists and technologists before future TLDs were launched.
The list of questions to be sent to Council by June 9, 2005, were regarded as a 'work in progress document' and creating a procedure for introducing new TLDs. A matrix would be created into which the input from various organizations would be filled in.
Council proposed working sessions with ICANN staff and the GNSO Council either at a physical ICANN meeting or a special teleconference to work through the questions and answers.
