[governance] FBI, DEA, IPv6 & ICANN

[Carlos A. Afonso]

John, thanks for you kind patience on this. I quote this article from 
CNet (which quotes you, incidentally), as example of the issues worrying 
the community for its technical and political implications:

http://news.cnet.com/8301-1009_3-57453738-83/fbi-dea-warn-ipv6-could-shield-criminals-from-police/?part=rss&tag=feed&subj

My question or concern presented to the board, to rephrase and simplify 
it, is: at which level should this issue be handled by our international 
governance structure for names, numbers and protocols? Should be Icann, 
since it is the organization recognized worldwide as the governance body 
for these? Or should Icann ignore it (as Thomas Marten implied) and let 
the problems, once present, be handled on an ad-hoc basis by one of its 
associated/supporting entities? Or even just wait and see?

If this is not clear, let me know. And I appreciate your mediation 
efforts on this.

fraternal regards

--c.a.

In any case, I continue to believe Icann is the proper space for directing my question, malgré the lack of response - btw, I have copied my concern to Lacnic's policy discussion lists at almost tlhe same time I directed the question to the Icann board.
