> At the Accra meeting .info country domain were discussed. I

> 
> Basically without to much detail the GAC and ICANN board 
> resolved that due to the 'special nature' of this gTLD 
> governments (domain administrators) are being given the 
> opertunity to use the specific geographical name i.e. 
> Australia.info, for providing information on international fora.
> 
> Is the auDA is putting forward an option on this and 
> submitting or particatiting in the forum and discussions.
> 
> If so; (will we see and drafts that are submitted to the 
> .info Country Names Discussion Group (ICNG)
> 
> -Does the auDA agree that this would fall into lines with our 
> current domain allocation policies and not cause any 
> hazardous precedents? -Does the auDA have any means to ensure 
> that a site such as this would be representive of factual 
> fora information and how would this be represented to the 
> public and government agencies that visit the site. -Does the 
> auDA feel that any locked names that fall into the cited 
> letter subsection 3.6.3 if .INFO registry agreement? Such as 
> au.info or oz.info. also in the same way would the auDA 
> partition for the names in differing languages? -What 
> information that would be represented on this site?
> 
> If not,

> (I would see that this domain space personifies the internet

> time to increase international trade, econemey, travel and 
> governmental relations not to mention many many more thing 
> that any of us here can think of.)

> -Who would be responsible for representing Oz in this
