ASO mailing list announcement/reminder

[Kim Hubbard]

 Reminder: ICANN ASO - Website and Discussion Lists

 This is an announcement to all parties with interests in management of
 Internet Address space and related resources.

 The Address Supporting Organisation of ICANN (the Internet Corporation for
 Assigned Names and Numbers) was established last year, and has assumed its
 responsibilities under the ICANN Bylaws for coordination of global policy
 development in relation to Internet Addresses and related resources. The
 nine-member Address Council has also been established, in accordance with
 the ASO MoU and ICANN Bylaws.

 Since its establishment, the ASO has established mailing lists
 and a website to ensure that its processes are open and transparent, and
accessible to all parties with an interest in Internet resource management
issues.

 Three ASO mailing lists are now available for public access to ASO
 information, and for input into the ASO process:

     aso-announce - for announcements and other information
                      relating to the ASO (read only list)
     aso-policy   - for open discussion on policy and other
                      ASO matters (open subscription list)
     aso-comment  - for comment and input of any kind (no subscription
necessary)

 The ASO website is also now available, at http://www.aso.icann.org, and
 carries information relating to the ASO, Address Council, and policy
matters
 which may be under consideration; as well as complete archive of the above
mailing lists.

 At this time the Address Council is seeking participants in the ASO
process,
 and encourages all interested parties to subscribe to the mailing lists
 above.  For information on how to subscribe, please visit the ASO website.

 We look forward to your participation!
