Dyn Inc at ICANN 34 to Video Blog Proceedings

Dynamic Network Services Inc. (Dyn Inc.) is attending ICANN 34 in Mexico
City.  While in Mexico, Dyn Inc staff will be conducting interviews with
key policy and technical people to give a flavor and insight to the
proceedings at this ICANN.  This will be a mix of interviews and statements
given by various personalities representing different policy and technical
groups.

ICANN serves as the technical coordination body and is morphing into a
consensus-based, member driven organization whose responsibility is the
root DNS and naming system.  Since ICANN was only founded in 1998 and
because the Internet is a fast changing place, a lot of things change
quickly.  When compared to other similar groups, some participants feel
that ICANN hastily makes decisions without appropriate comment.  Others
feel that ICANN takes too long to make some decisions as it attempts to
reach consensus on its decisions.

A lot of stuff goes on here at ICANN that affects how the Internet works.
ICANN works on naming and numbering generally speaking.  Big topics include
the introduction of new top level domains, DNSSEC deployments, and IDNs in
the top level. This is the place where those standards and policy come
together to shape the Internet.

Dyn Inc represents 60,000 domain name holders, over a dozen domain
registries and millions of users who use third level names through its free
dynamic DNS service.  One goal that we have with our attendance is to
provide them better information on what ICANN is doing.  Transparency of
ICANN is strongly discussed and we hope that we can do our part by
presenting this content to our users.
