I’m heading to Japan today, and won’t be updating this eJournal until tomorrow at the earliest. On the immediate agenda is the Yokohama ICANN meeting, which may be fairly pivotal. Several vital issues are on the agenda, including new top-level domain names and public participation in what has been a murky and top-down process.
Then I’ll be attending (and speaking at) the Internet Society’s annual meeting, INET 2000, also in Yokohama. The theme this year is “Global Distributed Intelligence for Everyone” — a big idea, as such things go.
Watch this space.
