ICC: A proposal for internet governance.

From the International Chamber of Commerce web site comes a proposal for internet governance, by Talal Abu-Ghazaleh:

1. Maintain the operational management of the internet under private sector leadership, driven by the dynamics of business. 2. Support ICANN's continued evolution, preserving private sector leadership while bolstering global legitimacy. 3. Set up within the TF a Governance Commission to be chaired by the US permanently, with membership from ITU, WIPO, WEF, ICC, UNCTAD, in addition to one representative from each continent. 4. Encourage the processes of International Domain Names implementation and Intellectual Property Rights protection.

(Thanks!)

James:
More on the ICC proposal: http://www.circleid.com/article/394_0_1_0_C. Quite interesting since the ICC represent major US companies such as AT&T, AOL TW, IBM, Microsoft, Verizon, etc. Wonder what the US government will respond to this?
