by k13＠nikhef.nl 18 Jun '98

18 Jun '98

Dear Colleagues, yesterday ISOC announced the "Internet Society Summit for discussing the structure of 'New IANA' ". This summit is open for all interested parties and will be held after the forthcoming INET'98 Conference in Geneva, Switzerland. The dates of the Summit are July 24-25. More information can be found at <http://www.isoc.org/isoc/media/releases/980616pr.shtml>. This meeting will discuss structure for the 'New IANA' in the light of (amongst others) the Green and White Papers which were recently released by the US Federal Government. It is expected that all key players, including the current IANA, will be present at this meeting. RIPE, RIPE NCC and RIPE CENTR will all three be present at this meeting, of course. As most of you know, we have been discussing these issues for the past two years at our RIPE meetings at length. The consensus reached at these meetings will be our platform for the discussions at the Summit Meeting. Comments, questions, etc. should be directed as follows: RIPE NCC - <Daniel.Karrenberg(a)ripe.net> - for address registration issues RIPE CENTR - <Boudewijn.Nederkoorn(a)surfnet.nl> - for ccTLD issues RIPE - <Rob.Blokzijl(a)nikhef.nl> - for general issues Once again, I encourage you all to come to the Summit - and of course you may take this opportunity to attend INET '98 as well ! Best regards, Rob Blokzijl Chairman RIPE

Iperdome Comments on the White Paper
by Jay Fenello 05 Jun '98

05 Jun '98

Iperdome Comments on the White Paper ATLANTA, June 5 -- After years of debate, and months of deliberation, the U.S. Government today released their long awaited Policy Statement on the Management of Internet Names and Addresses. Iperdome would like to thank Ira Magaziner, the Department of Commerce, and the many members of the Inter-Agency Working Group who have worked so hard on this difficult issue. Iperdome believes that the White Paper is a vast improvement over the MoU, and that it validates and addresses many of the concerns expressed by those who have opposed the IAHC plan. At the same time, Iperdome has some serious concerns with the possible results/outcome of "The Transition" as outlined in the White Paper. Over the next couple of days, Iperdome will review the details of the White Paper, then Jay Fenello will present a summary of these concerns to Congress when he testifies before the House Committee on Commerce as described below: http://www.house.gov/commerce/schedule.htm Wednesday, June 10, 1998 10:30 a.m. in 2123 Rayburn House Office Building Subcommittee on Telecommunications, Trade, and Consumer Protection hearing on Electronic Commerce: The Future of the Domain Name System. Regards, Jay Fenello President, Iperdome, Inc. 404-250-3242 http://www.iperdome.com

Dear all, This time I was too fast with the publication of the hostcount :( The UK didn't make it this time. It was the .NL domain who had the biggest increase in May: approximately 60,000 more hosts were counted than in April. Sorry about this. Kind Regards, Mirjam

Special World Friends

United World Friends Invitation # 201029 Dear World Friend: I am sure that by now you have tried all the "Get-Rich-Quick" schemes out there, and are ready and willing to turn your attention to something that really works. Most people are. Read on to unlock this Secret Door to your future. Would you like to quietly make extra money every month, year after year, and all of it be tax free? I knew you would. Now you can with the help of our World-Wide private network of friends helping friends. I would like to invite you to join a very special group of people and make the kind of money you are seeking. We have a private program based in the USA that extends around the entire world. Most of us are middle-aged or older, conservative and family oriented. We all made the commitment to do whatever we have to do -- as long as it is ethical, honest and legal -- to make tremendous income together in the years ahead. We have all `been there and done that' very much like you. We can all make money quietly and privately in comfort. You will not get rich overnight. If you want to get rich quick, this is not for you. By keeping it among private members, we can all profit handsomely in the coming months and years without drawing unnecessary attention to ourselves or our confidential strategies. I will show you how we use our unique, controlled, and honest program to put you in whatever income bracket you choose. All I want you to do is send $3.00 (to cover printing and postage) and I will send you all of our detailed information on how the club works and how everyone helps everyone. There is a one-time $10.00 set-up fee to become a member. Do not send the $10.00 now. If you like what you see after you review the information, then you can send in your $10.00 membership fee. We know you will like what you see. Our program will not interfere with any other programs in which you are participating. I will show you just how easy and powerful this program really is. Your tax-free cash gifts will come to you in increments of $10.00, not one or two dollars like some of the other programs out there. The money you can make is extraordinary, and we do most of the work. Our powerful Pentium servers and software keep track of everything for you.. You owe it to yourself to take a look and then decide if you would like to receive the kind of money that most people can only dream about. You will spend more than $3.00 on snacks today. Your future is worth more than a snack. No one will call you. No one will come see you. There is no pressure. You do not have to talk to anyone. You decide if you want to be part of our private network on your own after you review the information package. This is a private club with the privacy of each and every member protected. Quiet, confidential and comfortable. Mail this ENTIRE LETTER along with $3.00 inside US - $4.00 outside US (CASH only USD) for printing and postage to: UWF-Info * POBox 802-dd * CLEMMONS NC * 27012-0802 * USA Name: ______________________________________________________________ Address: __________________________________________________________ City: _______________________ State: _________ Zip: ____________ Country: ____________________ Email: ____________@________________ #201029
