| Development of the IP Policy Manual |
|
The issue of national Internet policies has gained increasing prominence in
recent years as the importance of IP-based networks and IP-based services and
applications (commonly referred to as "Internet') become increasingly apparent.
At its 5-16 May 2003 meeting, ITU Council discussed document C03/27 R1, which
is the report by the Secretary-General, the Director of BDT, and the Director
of TSB, concerning activities related to management of Internet domain names
and addresses in accordance with ITU Plenipotentiary Resolutions 102 and 133.
(See Summary Record of the Twelfth Plenary Session of Council 2003, 15 May 2003).
Council unanimously endorsed the ITU report and expressed its full support
for ITU's initiatives to date. It further encouraged the efforts made by the
Bureaux particularly in the areas of network security and internationalized
domain names. Council also endorsed a proposal made by several countries for
ITU‑T, in collaboration with ITU‑D, to develop an IP policy manual
to advise Member States, especially developing countries, on the management
of Internet domain names and related issues.
This web site contains the input contributions and output documents of the project
team during the development of the Manual.
At its 12-22 July 2005 meeting, ITU Council decided to validate the
work carried out by the project team and give its green light for the publication
of the Manual. The final text is currently undergoing translation into the six
official ITU languages and will be made available on this web site as soon as possible.
