* PRELIMINARY ANNOUNCEMENT*


Expert Workshop 18 September 2009

*Informal Expert Workshop
**http://net4d.org/18sep09-index.html*

* *

*The current situation concerning the Domain Name System is raising more 
and more interest as the end of the ICANN JPA 
<http://www.icann.org/en/jpa/> in September is approaching 
<http://www.fiercetelecom.com/story/icann-jpa-nears-end-legislators-concerned/2009-06-07>. 


Instead of engaging into bitter debates on how to co-manage a 
quasi-monopoly, an informal workshop is organized to explore whether 
there are any technical alternatives for the development of future 
information networks ?. Is there an effective solution to open to 
competition name resolving services. ?

This informal workshop <http://net4d.org/18sep09-index.html> is 
organized in the context of the expert mission 
<http://net4d.org/itu-expert-jul09.html> that has been recently 
contracted by ITU <http://www.itu.int> to Dr. Francis Muguet 
<http://knis.org/knis-list-muguet.html>. after his presentation, last 
May, at the WSIS Forum 
<http://www.itu.int/wsis/implementation/2009/forum/geneva/index.html> : 
Opening to competition the namespace infrastructure 
<http://net4d.org/net4d-geneva-may09.html>

This expert mission is in line with the outcomes of the last ITU Council 
Working Group on WSIS 
<http://www.itu.int/council/groups/wsis/index.html> , where ITU 
<http://www.itu.int/> was requested to study the evolution of the future 
internet.
The informal expert workshop <http://net4d.org/18sep09-index.html> is 
hosted at ITU headquarters, on Friday 18 September, which happens to 
occur after the European Dialogue on Internet Governance 
<http://www.eurodig.org> ( Monday 14 - Tuesday. 15 September ) and the 
IGF planning meeting <http://www.intgovforum.org> ( Wednesday 16- 
Thursday 17 September ) in Geneva

The workshop <http://net4d.org/18sep09-index.html>, organized by Dr. 
Francis Muguet <http://knis.org/knis-list-muguet.html>, is going to 
include in the morning, presentations and a round table, and in the 
afternoon, open discussions. *
