[AfrICANN-discuss] Week end reading

[Anne-Rachel Inné]

1. Researchers Map the Internet [AP]
Sending queries to about 2.8 billion IP addresses over two months, the
University of Southern California's Information Sciences Institute have
produced a map that shows the density of computers around the world. Their
internet census is the first since 1982 "when the Internet consisted of 315
allocated addresses." One of the aims of the census is to improve internet
security with the Department of Homeland Security supporting the project.
The links below are to an AP story and to a news item from the ISI that
includes a link to a full scale map.

2-8. A Script for Every Surfer
The launch of the IDN test by ICANN gained coverage around the world in many
languages. The Washington Post was one to have a detailed story, saying the
long wait "has left many in the non-English-speaking world impatient and
angry. Questions of political and linguistic sovereignty, alongside
accusations of American 'digital colonialism,' have motivated some countries
to create their own Internets, effectively mounting a challenge to the World
Wide Web." Michael Geist is quoted commenting on the difficulty for
non-English speakers who says "Think of what it would be like if every time
you typed out an e-mail address or visited a Web site you had to use Chinese
characters or Sanskrit." Milton L. Mueller and John Palfrey are also quoted.

10-20. Bidding starts for .asia domain rights
The launch of .asia is the other big story of the week, gaining a lot of
coverage around the world and in many languages. Most coverage simply
reported the announcement, but a few articles delved a little deeper. The
Register notes, "Carpet baggers will have to wait for their chance to hoover
up potentially valuable names" as "governments, trademark owners, and
official bodies" are currently the only entities able to register. Noting a
Latin American and African TLD "are both on their way", they also quote
Nominet's head Lesley Cowley who says this could be last TLD where there is
a huge demand for registrations given ICANN is likely to allow a relaxation
in rules leading to a leap in the number of TLDs available. This possible
leap in TLDs could mean trademark owners simply feel there are too many TLDs
to register a domain name in each one.

Meanwhile Agency FAQs quotes Ching Chaio, vice-president, community
relations at DotAsia Organisation who says they would like to emulate .eu
and are aiming for 2 million registrations.

1. Researchers Map the Internet [AP]
It took two months and nearly 3 billion electronic probes for researchers to
create a map of the Internet. Now comes the task of making sense of their
data - and figuring out what they missed. The Internet census comes from the
University of Southern California's Information Sciences Institute in Marina
del Rey, Calif. Over two months, ISI computers sent queries to about 2.8
billion numeric "Internet Protocol," or IP, addresses that identify
individual computers on the Internet. Replies came from about 187 million of
the IP addresses, and researchers used that data to map out where computers
exist on the Internet.

2. A Script for Every Surfer
Is the World Wide Web truly worldwide? Depends whom you ask. Since the
Internet began, the 70 percent of the world that doesn't speak English has
argued that the Web is inaccessible. So next week the nonprofit group
contracted by the U.S. government to run the Internet will begin testing
domain names in other languages.

3. The Internet Goes Polyglot
You won't have noticed, but yesterday the internet's plumbing underwent one
of its most fundamental changes in 20 years. The domain name system now
supports 11 non-English languages, for the first time in their native
non-Roman scripts. ICANN on Tuesday morning added the TLD ".test" in Arabic,
Persian, Russian, Hindi, Greek, Korean, Yiddish, Japanese, Tamil and two
flavors of Chinese, to the DNS's root servers.

ICANN has made an important step towards true internationalisation of the
Internet by launching a program testing the reality of making domain names
available for the characters of non-Latin derived languages.

7. ICANN to Test "One of the Biggest Changes to the Internet"
ICANN will launch an evaluation of Internationalized Domain Names next week
that will allow Internet users to test top-level domains in 11 languages.

A plan to allow non-Roman characters in domain names will make the Internet
more international than ever, but Australians look set to play a major role
in determining its success.

familiar landgrab by brand owners. Carpet baggers will have to wait for
their chance to hoover up potentially valuable names. DotAsia is available

February. It'll then give everyone else a crack of the whip.

-The existing candidates have not done a thorough job of snapping-up domain
names that could be easily associated with their campaigns by attackers
looking to ensnare end users.

29. NSA's Lucky Break: How the U.S. Became Switchboard to the World
A lucky coincidence of economics is responsible for routing much of the
world's internet and telephone traffic through switching points in the
United States, where, under legislation introduced this week, the U.S.
National Security Agency will be free to continue tapping it. Leading House
Democrats introduced the so-called RESTORE Act Tuesday that allows the
nation's spies to maintain permanent eavesdropping stations inside United
States switching centers. Telecom and internet experts interviewed by Wired
News say the bill will give the NSA legal access to a torrent of foreign
phone calls and internet traffic that travels through American soil on its
way someplace else. But contrary to recent assertions by Bush administration
officials, the amount of international traffic entering the United States is
dropping, not increasing, experts say.

37. Gemütlicher Start für .asia-Domain
Nach einem schnellen Endspurt zum Start ihrer Registry ist die neue
Adresszone .asia heute gemütlich gestartet – zumindest in Deutschland. Zwar
bieten eine Reihe deutscher Registrare die neuen Adressen bereits in der
heute gestarteten Sunrise-Phase an. Da es aber vorerst nicht nach dem
"First-Come-First-Serve"-Prinzip geht, sondern die bis 30. Oktober
einlaufenden Registrierungen von Markeninhabern gleich behandelt werden,
ließen sich viele Registrare Zeit. Manch ein Anbieter – wie der US-Hoster
Godaddy – schaffte es ohnehin nur auf den letzten Drücker, die
Akkreditierung bei der für die Adresszone verantwortlich zeichnenden DotAsia
Organisation Ltd. zu bekommen.

38. ICANN testet nicht-englische Adresszonen
Gestern wurden elf Versionen der Adresse .test in die Rootzone eingefügt,
und zwar .test auf Arabisch, Persisch, Russisch, Hindi, Griechisch,
Koreanisch, Hebräisch, Japanisch, in Tamil und in klassischem und modernem
Chinesisch. Ab dem kommenden Montag werden dann in all diesen Sprachen
"example.test"-Wikiseiten online erreichbar sein. Die Internet Corporation
for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) ruft im Zuge der von ihr gestarteten
