Re: Newly Updated NCDNHC Membership List



Nii and all,

  The following are copies of the two applications to the NCDNHC that I
am aware of:

===================  First copy starts here =====================

    Date:
         Fri, 13 Aug 1999 17:11:46 +0100
   From:
         "Mohammed-Sani Abdulai" <abdulaim@ug.edu.gh>
     To:
         "Non-Commercial Domain Name Holders Constituency Discussion List"
<ncdnhc-discuss@lyris.isoc.org>




APPLICATION AND INFORMATION FORM FOR PARTICIPATION IN NON-COMMERCIAL
DOMAIN
NAME HOLDERS CONSTITUENCY
Draft June 30, 1999

BACKGROUND:

The Non-Commercial Domain Name Holders Constituency has a special place in
the DNSO. The NCDNHC is intended to be independent of commercial interests.
Its members will be those organizations whose uses and applications of the
Internet are primarily non-commercial. Its purpose is to support
non-commercial speech and activity on the Internet, to protect the rights
of non-commercial domain name holders, and to forge together the interests
of non-commercial domain name holders. NCDNHC must provide the voice and
representation for organizations that serve non-commercial interests and
provide services such as community organizing, promotion of the arts,
children's welfare, religion, education, scientific research, human rights
and the advancement of the Internet as a global communications system
available to all segments of society. The interests of such organizations
are not necessarily represented by the other constituencies of the DNSO and
deserve to be represented in the NCDNHC.

SIGN UP PROCEDURE:

     The NCDNHC represents a large and heterogenous group of
organizations, many of whom are not yet aware of the ICANN, its processes,
and their impact.  It is crucial to the success of the constituency that it
be operated in an open manner which will encourage new organizations
meeting the membership criteria to join and participate.

It is also important that those within the constituency have the
opportunity to learn about a member, any possible conflicts the member
might have, and the position and title of the person designated to
represent the member.

Please provide the following information in order to participate in
the Non-Commercial Domain Name Holders Constituency of the Domain Name
Supporting Organization of ICANN.
