MS has draft 0.8 of Catalyst report. This is not being circulated widely since it is a draft. MS pleased to see that Catalyst see a need to make sure there is a good infrastructure in place to support ENUM UCI PUA. MS confident that they are doing good things with INZ money, especially w.r.t ensuring that there is a design to ensure that we are not just fostering yet another spam tool. Should provide a new worthwhile service - to members and to the NZ Internet Community. Full report should be available for next council meeting. |

Seems that there is a proposal out there regarding a .NZL suffice for XML database definition. While there is the argument that the XML namespace and the DNS namespace are different beasts, the proposal is using examples of 2LDs with the .nzl suffix like govt.nz - and there is a potential for namespace clash. There have also been some approaches by 'someone' in government about ICANN supporting the .nzl and xml namespace definition. Is there a problem? We don't know but there is a "potential" problem. Therefore have asked the Executive Director and the Technical Manager of InternetNZ to resolve the real position and the possibilities of problems arising, prior to the end of March deadline for submissions on the process. |

Joe Abley has developed a relationship with the CACERT people in Australia. That might be helpful. MS asked about ICANN/IANA possibly hosting CA? Does not seem to be a flyer. This whole thing is getting more critical and we need to come to a position Real Soon Now. DH is to take some urgent action on his paper regarding this topic. Something needed by next Council meeting. |

Nothing available, Deferred. |

7. |
No longer an issue. No follow up |

1. |
This one has become somewhat confusing. PM is to see where we might go in getting matching funding from Government to fund clever ideas. Wait and see. |
|
4. |
Interop on hold waiting from government money to come through. Clearance from MED on policy. Bids all ready and waiting to fly. |
|
3. |
JV has funnelweb server up (sharman.internetnz.net.nz) and most things are up and running. Maybe something to see by next council meeting. |
