His involvement with the Internet began in 1984, when he and his colleagues at the Department of Computer Science established the a UUCP network linking several universities in Chile. This network was linked a couple of years later to the global internet, and as a consequence in 1987 the department assumed responsibility for operating the domain name registry for [[.CL]], which later became [[NIC Chile]]. [[NIC Chile]] is one of the largest registries in Latin America, and is known, among other things, for having introduced a dispute resolution system based on arbitration in 1997 (two years before the [[UDRP]]). Recently, it was the first Spanish speaking registry to introduce [[IDN]].
