Titled "Toward the New Era of Internet," the meeting will include discussions on Internet security and the challenges it presents to governments, service providers and end-users and the need for a migration to IPv6 because of the depletion of the widely-used IPv4 space. ICANN will also discuss its progress on implementing internationalized domain names.
"ICANN, TWNIC and the global Internet community are tackling some of the most important issues impacting the Internet since its creation," says Paul Twomey, ICANN's president and CEO. "This meeting is an opportunity for technical communities, Internet businesses and policy makers from the Asia-Pacific to come together and share thoughts and ideas on how we can move forward together. ICANN is about to launch a technical evaluation of the impact IDNs will have and if all goes well internationalized domain names could be available sometime in 2008."
