ICANN ASO: website and mailing lists

[Paul Wilson]

(with apologies for duplicates)

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 archives 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!


Paul Wilson
for the ASO Address Council.
