[arin-announce] Significant Announcement 3 February – Watch it Live!

[ARIN]

On Thursday, 3 February 2011, at 9:30 AM Eastern Standard Time (EST), 
the Number Resource Organization (NRO), along with the Internet 
Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, the Internet Society (ISOC) 
and the Internet Architecture Board (IAB) will be holding a ceremony and 
press conference to make a significant announcement and to discuss the 
global transition to the next generation of Internet addresses.

Much has been written in the international media over the last few weeks 
about the dwindling pool of Internet addresses using the original 
Internet protocol, called IPv4 (Internet Protocol version 4), and this 
topic will be addressed at the event.

We invite all interested community members to view the webcast of this 
event at: http://www.nro.net/news/icann-nro-live-stream

In the event you happen to be at the Intercontinental Hotel in Miami on 
Thursday, there will be limited public seating available to attend (with 
press receiving seating priority) in Room “Concourse II” at 9:30 AM EST 
for the ceremony and 10:00 AM for press conference which follows.
