I was appointed to the ICANN’s Security and Stability Advisory Committee recently and I am very proud of that. This group of esteemed security experts are a crucial element of the ICANN community, because their task is to identify threats to the good working fo the Internet and suggest possible remedies. This is not a glamourous position, but rather behind the scenes work in the interest of the Internet user community at large.
On a similar note, I had the pleasure to co-chair the At-Large working group on DNS security issues, with came up with a statement we were reasonably happy with. The best part was actually today, where we received kudos from other parts of the community, which tend to view the At-Large more as a political obligation of ICANN that a really useful component.
I hope this will both help the recognition of the At-Large as serious players in the ICANN context, but also motivate the At-Large members, who are often depicted as jerks and end up believing they are.
