UKNM: do your bit for democracy

[Richard Spinks]

well this is a bit off-topic but i figured some of you might be

interested...


In September this year, 5 new members will be elected to ICANN by a global

"at large membership". Any Internet user can register (until about the end

of June I think) and have the right to vote in the elections. Apparently

only about 17,000 people worldwide have signe dup so far.


ICANN say "ICANN’s At Large Membership program is a new way for Internet

users from all over the globe to participate directly in the ICANN process.

As an At Large Member of ICANN, you’ll be informed about and connected to

the policymaking structure for the Internet’s domain name and numbering

systems. The At Large Members of ICANN will be able to participate in a

historic first- a worldwide online election to choose Directors for the

Internet’s private-sector technical coordinating body."
