Rob Hall's "digital archery" product is starting to look pretty prescient. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>another interesting dimension -- there's a pretty lively discussion over on the Facebook "ICANN Social" group about forming a new constituency for gTLD applicants to advance the agenda of those applicants. that group must be pretty big, given the number of strings applied for. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>just a few observations to feed into the "reorganization" discussion. when i was in the Business Constituency we wrestled with the puzzle of how to accommodate corporations that were likely to become registries and this implies that there may be a fair number of those type people. from our perspective, it seems to me that 2000+ new gTLDs in the root have quite a number of operational, stability and support issues that come along with them.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>just food for thought. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>mikey<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>PS -- for those of you who are wondering, this is the first post from your newest member. i've been involved with ICANN for about 7 years and have moved from the Business Constituency to the ISPCP now that i am part of an ISP again. i started one of those 2nd-generation ISPs in the mid-90's and sold it just before the bubble burst -- now i'm a volunteer at a regional peering point in the north-central US.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal>over the years my focus has been on the bottom of the bottom-up process -- working groups. i try to participate in the working-groups that make policy, and avoid the ones that focus on process issues. so here's a string of working-group acronyms for you (sorry about this) -- IRTP-A/B/C, Fast Flux, RAP-WG, RAP-DT, PEDNR, HSTLD-AG, ZFA-AG, VI, DSSA, CCWG-DT, FRN-DT. if you're interested in knowing a little more about all that, here's a link to my ICANNwiki page -- <a href="http://icannwiki.com/index.php/Mike_O%27Connor">http://icannwiki.com/index.php/Mike_O%27Connor</a><o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal>Begin forwarded message:<o:p></o:p></p></div><p class=MsoNormal><br><br><o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"'>From: </span></b><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"'>"ICANN News Alert" <<a href="mailto:communications@icann.org">communications@icann.org</a>></span><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"'>Date: </span></b><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"'>May 5, 2012 1:05:03 AM CDT</span><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"'>To: </span></b><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"'><<a href="mailto:mike@haven2.com">mike@haven2.com</a>></span><o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal><b><span style='font-size:13.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica","sans-serif"'>Subject: ICANN News Alert -- TAS Interruption -
