Verisign's Sitefinder Technical Review Panel

in Code

Site Finder - VeriSign Inc.

VeriSign has created a Technical Review Panel to gather and analyze technical data relating to the implementation of VeriSign's Site Finder service.
The Panel will solicit and gather technical facts and issues regarding the implementation of the Site Finder service from interested parties of the Internet community, such as the Internet Architecture Board (IAB) and ICANN

Verisign also included details of the charter for the group. They should add to the already self-serving list of activities that the panel should "waste a lot of everyone's time producing an analysis for a "service" that will be shoved down the internet's throat whether they like it or not."

    Why is Bruce Tonkin lending his credibility, and his company's, to this charade?

    I don't know. Bruce is a smart guy with a lot of savvy. I'm sure he has his reasons. I'd also be interested in hearing why myself.

    Indeed.
