Hi all,

A conference that could interest some of you, especially given the meeting in Geneva at around the same time.

Cheers

Internet Governance Theme at Domain Pulse 2009
Domain Pulse 2009, an annual meeting organised by the registries of Austria (nic.at), Switzerland (SWITCH) and Germany (DENIC) will this year be held in Dresden, Germany on February 12 and 13.

The conference is the most significant conference in the German-speaking region on domain names, and this year the emphasis is on the Introduction of new Top Level Domains plus also internet governance. And fear not English speakers, there are real-time translations of presentations in German into English, and vice versa when presentations are in English.

Presentations this year include:
 * The web's a stage - philosophical remarks about living in the Internet world by Prof. Peter Sloterdijk, Hochschule für Gestaltung Karlsruhe
