Featured Article, March 3, 2022

‎The International Forum on the White Paper (IFWP) was a globally initiated association composed of organizations representing the various interest of the internet stakeholders. Its primary objective was to coordinate international meetings relevant to the proposed transition of the management of the DNS from the US government to a private non-government organization. The IFWP was formed after the National Telecommunications Information Administration (NTIA) released the White Paper in 1998 and asked for public comments regarding the US government's proposal to improve the technical management of the internet by transferring the management to a new non-government corporation.

In the News

On March 1, the CENTR Board suspended the membership of the Coordination Center for TLD RU/РФ immediately.
Also on March 1, Rolling Stone reported that Ukrainian officials asked ICANN in an email to revoke domains issued in Russia and shut down primary DNS servers in the country, effectively barring access to Russian internet sites and potentially taking the entire country offline. Andrii Nabok, a Ukraine representative to the GAC, sent the request.
In response, on March 3, 2022, ICANN CEO Goran Marby, denied the request, explaining, "...The Internet is a decentralized system. No one actor has the ability to control it or shut it down...Our mission does not extend to taking punitive actions, issuing sanctions, or restricting access against segments of the Internet -- regardless of the provocations."
In preparation for ICANN 73, ICANN released its Policy Outlook Report, describing the status of Policy Development Processes that are underway and identifying relevant sessions at the meeting.
