The '''Number Resource Organization (NRO)''' is the coordinating body for the world's five Regional Internet Registries ([[RIR]]s), which manage the allocation of [[IP Address|IP addresses]] and [[Autonomous System Numbers]].
 
  
The NRO was originally formed on 24 October 2003, when the 4 original [[RIR]]s entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). [[AFRINIC]] signed the MoU and joined the NRO shortly after it was incorporated in April 2005.

ICANNWiki is independet from ICANN, and any donations made to us are used only to maintain this platform.

Where to start

Getting started is as simple as requesting an account, which will be approved as long as it does not appear to be intended for spam or malice. Then, make sure to read our short content guide to get a feel for what belongs in the wiki. You may also want to have a look at some data source suggestions on where to find reliable data. That's it, happy editing!

Current Focus

Our focus this season is: ICANN History. Our community is working together on surfacing information from ICANN's history, including going over its documents, blog posts, Working Groups (including the already great article on Working Groups!), and all other relevant information that can help us understand how ICANN arrived where it is today.
