<p><a href="http://www.feedblitz.com/t2.asp?/175425/20805856/3851130/http://ncdnhc.org" target="_blank">Civil society organizations within ICANN</a> have been holding a vote on the adoption of a new charter to form the Noncommercial Stakeholders Group (NCSG). Today, <a href="http://www.feedblitz.com/t2.asp?/175425/20805856/3851130/http://listserv.syr.edu/scripts/wa.exe?A2=ind1006&L=ncsg-ncuc-discuss&T=0&O=D&X=71978D1B34E1429B2D&Y=mueller%40syr.edu&v=2.0&P=6686" target="_blank">it was announced that the charter was successfully ratified</a>. Approval of the charter required that at least 60% of the entire membership of the Noncommercial stakeholders vote in favor of the charter. Of the total 314 votes possible, 225 votes were cast - a very good turnout that constitutes 72% of the total. Of the 225 votes cast, 215 voted in favor of the charter and only 10 votes were cast against it. That means that over 95% of the civil society groups involved in ICANN's GNSO support the proposed charter. ICANN's Board will now have to recognize that it's time to let the NCSG move forward as a community.<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/IGPBlogCombined/~4/3JiDa5y-LFg" height="1" width="1"></p>

With less than a week to go before the opening of ICANN's DNSSEC root key generation ceremony, there is a <a href="http://www.feedblitz.com/t2.asp?/175425/20805856/3851130/http://dnssec-deployment.org/pipermail/dnssec-deployment/2010-June/003913.html" target="_blank">roaring debate occurring among the technical community</a> whether or not the list of Trusted Community Representatives (TCRs) should be publicly revealed in advance. The TCRs were selected by ICANN to participate in the generation of the keys that will be used to digitally sign the DNS root zone file keyset, providing a single trust anchor for authenticating a global, secure DNS.<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/IGPBlogCombined/~4/LUazRqHxMUI" height="1" width="1"><div style="font-size:8pt;clear:left">

<p>Last month, in a speech to China's top legislature, Wang Chen, director of State Council Information Office of China, introduced that "we are also exploring an identity authentication system for users of online bulletin board systems. Identity authentication, or real-name registration in Chinas online environment has been discussed intensively in the past few years, however, Wang Chens speech is regarded as the first official announcement of the government enforcement to disable anonymity in popular news portals and business websites.<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/IGPBlogCombined/~4/UMWRu8yGM5E" height="1" width="1"></p>
