Hi All, The .EU domain name, sought from ICANN by the European Commission, has been in discussion for over a year now. To date no Charter has been proposed for the name and Commission representatives have indicated that policy should come through dialogue with the European Internet Community. In an attempt to move this process on I have produced a draft Charter for an .EU Policy Oversight Committee which is visible in English, French and German at www.eupoc.org. I would be most grateful for suggestions for improvement of this document and also for your support for the principle of involvement of the wider Internet community in policy matters. There is a support page on the site. I hope an improved version of this Charter will be discussed at the EC-POP meeting in Brussels on March 1st 2001. Thank you for your attention. Please feel free to contact me directly if you have specific questions. Regards Steve Dyer Chairman CentralNic
