[Chapter-delegates] New blog post: The Internet of square brackets

[Richard Hill]

Dear Mark,

 

Thank you for this good update, and for your previous update.

 

Regarding the ITRs, the discussion was about how ITU-T Study Groups should or should not be invited to contribute to the work on the ITRs, not about whether the TSB should be able to provide input, because the Council decision that established the group that will review the ITRs instructed the Directors of the Bureaux (including TSB) “each within their field of competence, with advice from the relevant advisory group, to contribute to the work of the Group, recognizing that the ITU Telecommunication Standardization Sector has most of the work relevant to the ITRs;”.  

 

I understand that the Resolution on this issue was agreed today, but we will have to wait until it is presented for formal approval.

 

It might also be worth noting that other Resolutions that could be of general interest (even if not specifically related to Internet governance) have been agreed and should be formally approved in due course. In particular, revisions were agreed to the resolution on Measurement concerns related to human exposure to electromagnetic fields, and to the resolution on Information and communication technologies, environment and climate change.

 

Best,

Richard

Dear Members,

 

We’ve just passed the midpoint of the World Telecommunication Standards Assembly (WTSA), and negotiations on several Internet-related resolutions are well underway. Three issues in particular may be of interest to you. Our new blog post, The Internet of square brackets, provides an update on the current status of the discussions on the Digital Object Architecture, a proposal for the protections of territorial names in generic top-level domains, and the review of the International Telecommunication Regulations.
