[ih] Internet DNS Names Review Board Anyone?

[Greg Skinner]

Understood.  I wasn’t implying that the IAHC was somehow involved in “names review”, but that its mailing list archives might lead to individuals who could provide Dr. Lisse with the information he is seeking.

For what it’s worth, a bit of poking around the IETF mailing list archives turned up a couple more items:

Exchange between Donald Eastlake and Simon Higgs regarding the functions of the IAHC and IDNB <https://mailarchive.ietf.org/arch/msg/ietf/XUiL1JeLJbSRBUM6ymMatldWfPY/>

Simon Higgs’ TLD Classification and Catagorization draft <https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-higgs-tld-cat-02>
