I have attempted to put together a short list of blurbs
to further my understanding of the current issues surrounding the .WEB TLD.
Based on some web references, a few of which are from Ken Stubbs himself (posted
on the DNSO web site). Correct me if I am wrong, and I certainly hope that I am: -
IANA gave Image Online permission to establish the .WEB registry in 1995
- IANAs
role was handed over to ICANN
- Network Solutions heavily funds ICANN?
- ICANN
now funds IANA?
- ICANN has held off adding Image Onlines Registry to the root
directory
- CORE attempted to take away the .WEB TLD from Image Online
- ICANN
has asked for competitive bids for .WEB and other TLDs
- Afilias was created ONE
MONTH AGO to compete with Image Online for the .WEB TLD
- Network Solutions is
part of Afilias
- CORE is part of Afilias
- Afilias has a person by the name
of Ken Stubbs on it's board of directors
- Ken Stubs is on the Board of Directors
for CORE
- Ken Stubs is on the Board of Directors for Afilias
- Ken Stubs is
connected to ICANN through DNSO
- Therefor Ken Stubbs is directly connected to
the decision making process for a competitive bid in which companies he is involved
with are competing?
- Afilias says that two companies called Tucows and Q9 will
start a company called RegCo to help Afilias with it's registry
- Afilias makes
allusions to offering IANA an equity role in RegCo if it is granted a TLD (The
same IANA who is funded by ICANN who is funded by Network Solutions who is a member
of Afilias which is also co-owned by CORE) (in the middle of all of this is Ken
Stubbs, DNSO, a supporting organisation of ICANN, onthe board of managers of Afilias,
current chairman of CORE, officer of iDomains?) Can someone please verify these
issues? Regards,
Chris Grady
