ICANN 13

ICANN 13 was held in Bucharest, Romania. It was to be the first ICANN Meeting that was held in the Country, and it was seen as a huge success, due to the amount of new persons, who had turned up to take play a part in the discussions hat followed over the course of the event. All meetings were free to attend for any interested person, looking for new information on the topics, that were due to be discussed, and also like previous ICANN events, the option was available for a web cast and Remote Participation Service.

The Public Forum for this event lasted for three days and discussed several topics with presentations, such as the .org foundation and the general internet society. Many important subjects were discussed and the proposal of a new Public interest registry was one issue that came under much debate.
