| o 1a. Full name of the nominee: Timothy Denton
| o 1b. E-mail address of the nominee: tmdenton@magma.ca
| o 1c. Background information about the nominee:
|
|
|
| I was born in 1950 and have three children. I practice in Internet
| regulatory and policy issues from my home in Ottawa, Canada. I have worked
| or work for domain name suppliers, Internet service providers and also
| consult to international organizations and the federal government in
| Internet policy issues.
|
| Currently I am the representative of the .ca-registrars on the Board of
| Canadian Internet Registration Authority (CIRA). I also act for Tucows, one
| of the world's largest domain name registrars, in the ICANN forum. I
| recently completed a study of international charging arrangements for
| Internet services for the APEC Telecommunications Committee. I have lectured
| recently in Japan on customer-owned broadband networks in Canada.
|
| I am the author of "Bellheads versus Netheads", and "The Internet
| Illustrated", found at my website. I have acted as a consultant to the
| Canadian Radio Television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) when it
| decided against regulating the Internet as "broadcasting" - sparing
| Canadians regulation of the Internet by broadcast licensing.
|
| I hold a Bachelor of Civil Law (BCL) from McGill University. My
| undergraduate degree from the same university was in political science and
| philosophy.
|
| My speeches, writings, and regulatory submissions are found, together, with
| a profile of my firm, at the website www.tmdenton.com.

| o 1d. Statement of the nominee's objectives
| o in the role as Chair of the GA:
| o (including his or her views of the role
| o of the GA and its relationship with the
| o Names Council and Constituencies of the DNSO)
|
| The General Assembly is the open forum for participation in the work of the
| DNSO. Its principal other function is to nominate persons to serve on
| ICANN's Board in those seats reserved for the DNSO (Article VI-B, section 4)
|
| The role of the chair of the General Assembly is to seek orderly processes
| of consensus creation, in what must necessarily be a difficult environment
| of conflicting views and interests. It is not a fun job, but it can be
| handled well.
|
| The chief function of a chairman is to allow for intelligent and orderly
| participation, and to move to consensus where it can be found. I intend to
| hold in firm check the tendency of certain angry and impassioned people to
| dominate list serves with diatribes. Discussion groups are avoided by
| sensible and busy people when, as was the case in the Working Groups leading
| to the expansion of domain names, the ranters are allowed to prevail.
|
| The General Assembly is a part of the DNSO and consists of all interested
| individuals and entities, according the language of article VI-B, section
| 1b. It is the final repository of the democratic principle among the
| organized interests gathered under the Names Council. It is the catch-basin
| for all as yet unorganized groups, as well as members of the organized
| groups. Thus membership in constituencies overlaps the GA, and members in a
| constituency may also be members of another. The GA membership overlaps
| constituencies and in addition includes all members not yet organized as
| constituencies.
|
| Do there need to be new constituencies?
| The structure of the DNSO is organized around interest groups. In principle
| there is no reason why more could not exist, if they represented a
| sufficiently well-organized and identifiable group with valid interests in
| the working of the domain name system.
| Would more groups make the DNSO more difficult to organize?
| Probably, but since the Supporting Organizations are advisory bodies to the
| Board, and the ICANN Board decides how it wants to, unity in the DNSO is not
| a requirement of the ICANN system. A thorough airing of the issues is the
| goal of DNSO processes.
| Should the DNSO be organized primarily along constituencies?
| Yes. They represent and mobilize actual economic interests.
