[governance] Toward a Governance Policy for New York's TLD

[Thomas Lowenhaupt]

September is going to be Governance Month at Connecting.nyc Inc. as we 
convert our comprehensive and confusing Governance Ecology pages on our 
wiki 
<http://www.coactivate.org/projects/campaign-for.nyc/board-of-directors> 
into something understandable by New York's Internet community. Our hope 
is to move the conversation to the city's NYCShare.org site upon its 
completion.

Amongst our "conversion" activities are weekly meetings on my Google+ 
Hangout on the topic, Thursday's from 10-11 AM NYC time. We're holding a 
prep today, same time, 10-11. Here's the notice we've sent out:

    Who owns New York's TLD? What is the governance process?

    These most fundamental questions will be topic of this weeks Tea and
    .nyc at my Google+ Hangout
    <https://plus.google.com/_/notifications/ngemlink?path=%2F%3Fgpinv%3DdfX6OlVqIUg%3Al0RUKL1XqtM>
    on Thursday from 10-11 AM.

    This is a intro to a month of Thursday's discussions on the topic
    that are tied in with reorganization our Governance Ecology
    <http://www.coactivate.org/projects/campaign-for.nyc/board-of-directors>
    pages on the wiki. A multi-stakeholder governance model, in line
    with the global Internet governance model, is the presumed outcome.
    But let's explore and discuss.

    Join us.
