laudable, many have expressed concerns about the speed of this
transition. My strong belief is that 2015 is too soon. This should be a
deliberative and democratic process to guarantee that ICANN will remain a
neutral body......"<br><br>"......As the transfer of authority moves forward, my Senate colleagues and I
will be watching to see that the proposal sent to the NTIA implements
strong reforms like these. Otherwise, we will urge that it go back to
the drawing board."<br><br>Source : <br>http://www.informationweek.com/<br><br>Good read!<br><br><br> </div></body>
