The five RIRs supported the continuance of the ITRs to guide and promote the growth of international Internet connectivity. In their collective submission sent to the ITU, the RIRs stated that while they share many of the concerns expressed by the ITU Member States in the fields of interconnection costs, security, spam, and issues relating to Internet resources, they don?t believe that some of the proposed new ITR provisions can effectively help to solve these matters. Instead, the letter says that ?many will carry unintended consequences: the ITRs will remain unchanged for many years after WCIT, while most of the issues of concern will change as technologies will evolve.?

Since 1993, APNIC has proudly served the Asia Pacific Internet community, thanks to the support, cooperation, and energy of people and organizations across the region and beyond. As we approach this anniversary, we want to improve our historical archive of documents, milestones, stories, and personalities from APNIC's first 10 years (1993-2003). I am very pleased to welcome Gerard Ross who will work on behalf of APNIC in the coming months on the APNIC History Project. Gerard was APNIC's Documentation Manager between 1998 and 2007 so some of you may know him already. In addition, he will also be working on the Asia Internet History Project, under the leadership of Dr Kilnam Chon, and will produce our input to the book and other publications. In developing the archives, we need your help. If you have any official documents, meeting notes, emails, photos, video, and even anecdotes or other memories, we'd love to hear from you. We are especially interested in anything that will help us tell our early story and give full credit to all those individuals, Members, supporting organizations, and partners who helped create APNIC. Please send your contributions to: history at apnic.net We thank you in advance for helping us spread the word about this project and look forward to hearing from you. ________________________________________________________________________ Paul Wilson, Director-General, APNIC dg at apnic.net http://www.apnic.net +61 7 3858 3100 From info at arin.net Fri Nov 16 09:03:28 2012 From: info at arin.net (ARIN) Date: Fri, 16 Nov 2012 09:03:28 -0500 Subject: [arin-announce] Reminder: Fee Schedule and PDP Consultations Open Message-ID: <50A647B0.2060701@arin.net> The consultation on proposed changes to the ARIN Fee Schedule will be closing on 26 November 2012, and the consultation onthe revised Policy Development Process (PDP) will close 30 November 2012.
