[arin-announce] Internet Governance Forum 2014 is Underway: Remote Participation Available

[ARIN]

The ninth annual Internet Governance Forum (IGF) began today in Istanbul 
and will run through 5 September. ARIN representatives are participating 
alongside those from other Regional Internet Registries (RIRs). ARIN 
encourages all members of the global Internet community to participate 
in this important dialogue on Internet governance, where all 
stakeholders meet on an equal footing.

Of particular interest at this year’s IGF will be the session “IANA 
Functions: NTIA’s Stewardship Transition and ICANN’s Accountability 
Process,” which is currently scheduled for 5 September from 9:30 - 11:00 
AM (UTC+3), but may be subject to change. Learn more about this topic at:
