Key developments

Outcomes

Ad Hoc Group on Future Numbering Policies

Following up on actions taken at ICANN 3, the board approved the charter for an ad hoc group on future numbering policies.^[3] The charter was succinct and grounded in an expectation that the group would not solve all of the issues that it identified:

The ad hoc group should identify the key technology, commercial and economic drivers that will affect addressing and numbering in the Internet. Recognising the risks of specifying modifications to core Internet technologies in a small group that inevitably understands some elements of the picture better than others, the group will identify issues, problems, risks, and opportunities, but is not expected to propose, much less adopt, technical solutions to them. The assessment must include current trends in services and network convergence and globalisation, particularly those emerging from the telecommunications sector, as well as changes in the demands on traditional IP address space. Examples of technology forces to be considered include IMT 2000, 3GPP, and Bluetooth. The group will examine and identify any characteristics of these applications that they believe are so unusual as to challenge the Internet's technical tradition of an application-independent basic architecture for addressing and routing structures. The ad hoc group shall focus on the future demands and impacts these new technologies will have on the administration of IP address space. Particular attention must be given towards global policy formation and the identification of any requirements to Internet addressing in the future. If the ad hoc group identifies areas in which they believe changes to addressing architectures or other technologies should be considered, they should clearly identify the problems that require resolution rather than suggesting technical solutions so that appropriate responses to those requirements can be considered in a broader more open and technically responsive forum.^[3]

-'''ICANN 4''' was held in the Shearton Gateway hotel located in Los Angeles California. There were to be several meetings planned for the event, and all meetings were determined to have been a succsess. Meetings that were held included the egular DNSO meetings, an informal AT-Large membership forum, an [[ICANN]] Public forum and a [[ICANN]] Board Meeting.
+==Key developments==
-ICANN had also made arrangements with the Berkman Center for Internet & Society to provide the option, of remote participation diring the course of the event. This addition to the event had made it possible for the public to activly comment on the open meetings as they were in progress.
+==Outcomes==
+===Ad Hoc Group on Future Numbering Policies===
+Following up on actions taken at [[ICANN 3]], the board approved the charter for an ad hoc group on future numbering policies.<ref name="charter">[https://archive.icann.org/en/committees/adhoc/draft-charter-03nov99.htm ICANN.org Archives - Charter, Ad Hoc Group on Future Numbering Policies], November 1999</ref> The charter was succinct and grounded in an expectation that the group would not solve all of the issues that it identified:
+<blockquote>The ad hoc group should identify the key technology, commercial and economic drivers that will affect addressing and numbering in the Internet.

-This [[ICANN]] meeting was schedualed to last for four days, and was to consist of several meetings lasting the course of each day. Day one had mainly consisted of Mettings between the DNSO and had consisted of meetings that talked about issues such as the global awareness and outreach. There was also a meeting on this day, between the DNSO registrar constituancy which was to talk aobut the funding issues, [[ICANN]] faced at this time.
+==Key sessions==
-Day two was to bring an ADHOC open meeting and also a discussion throughout the Govermental advisory committee. The GAC primary role, in its involvement towards ICANN is to provide guidence on Issues of Public Policy. A GAC Public open forum was also arranged for later on in this day. At the end of day two there was a DNSO working group, which was held to talk about Buisness plans and normal working procedures.
-Day three of ICANN 4 consisted of an all day public forum, in which members of the public could talk about, and raise awareness to any issues or concerns they have about the use of Top level domains and also [[ICANN]] Procedures.On the Final day of the event, there was a continuation of the previous public forum, which was well discussed throughout the closing meeting of the day, the ICANN board Meeting.
-==Developments==
-==Historical Notes==
