ALAC and ICANN Compliance | March 23 | Garth B. | Presented UDRP issues to Compliance as documented in the memo to the ALAC Chair. See: We have also submitted additional data on the ongoing saga of the Rape Tube and its related domains with false WHOIS records.

NARALO | March 23 @7AM | Thomas Lowenhaupt, NARALO Glenn McKnight Garth B. | Attended monthly NARALO meeting remotely, from New York City. NARALO monthly call Chaired NARALO Meeting |
Opening ceremony | March 24 | Dev Anand | Clever use of deja vu by Steve Crocker in his opening remarks (although it wasn't a unanimous decision to launch the new gTLD program as the video implied) And the first of the many messages about the "transition of the stewardship of the IANA function" Dr Yaacob Ibrhahim mentioned not just the Internet penetration achievements of SIngapore but policy initiatives such as the Personal Data Protection Act and and making the Internet more accessible to low income, physically challenged and senior citizens. The spotlight by ICANN's VP of Asia Pacific on ISIF awardees was also informative and interesting and I note similiar intiitiatives exist in other regions. The executive from Infocomm noted the Open Data initiatives in Singapore

ISIF | March 25 | Maureen Hilyard | I attended this meeting for an hour this morning, as the project sponsor of two ISIF (APNIC) Awards in the Pacific region. One project is as the president of CIIAG, where one of our members is creating a mobile application to support the retention of the language of the Cook Islands which is at risk of being lost; the second is as the Board Chair of PICISOC where one of our members is involved in a technical research project. This project is being undertaken at Auckland University, New Zealand, but involves several countries in the Pacific where special equipment transmits data speed information to the university base. |
ccNSO (Day 1) | March 25 | Maureen Hilyard | Unfortunately the Tuesday ALAC schedule was also quite busy with important topics which kept me from the ccNSO programme, which included:
|
IANA | March 25 | Maureen Hilyard | As part of my outreach, I sent a short article to the Cook Islands News letting them know about IANA and ICANN's role in its transition to the global community. The message also gave me an opportunity explain IANA's roles and how endusers in the Cook Islands are linked to the activities of IANA and our regional RIR (APNIC). |
ISOC | March 25 | Glenn McKNight | ISOC Delegate meeting |
ISOC | March 25 | Maureen Hilyard | Good networking and catchup session. Unfortunately, I don't think that the meeting itself achieved as much for ISOC members who may not get an opportunity to get a face to face session with ISOC leaders, although this was Kathy's first meeting with ICANN-ISOC members. But it really only focused on the interests of a few, and it wasn't until the end of the session when May-Ann (from Singapore) asked for more information for new members about ISOC. |
ALAC -Leaders | March 26 | Glenn | RALO Leaders meeting focused only the policy issues. Time limitations resulted in other topics not covered. |
