Re: [ga] Nine Geographical Zones

[Jefsey Morfin <jefsey@wanadoo.fr>]

Dear Danny,
As you know I support three projects here:

1. nine geographical balanced areas:
     The mapping project I support is the following:

      - North-America
      - South-America
      - Western-Europe
      - Eastern-Europe
      - Western-Asia
      - Eastern-Asia
      - Pacific
      - Africa
      - Oceans

      Up to each country to decide which local area they wants to be in.

      I underline the need of an Ocean area for all the territories with 
specific concerns in term of network infrastructure, e-commerce off-shore 
propositions, and the shipping.

2. I propose that every ccTLD maintains 243 addresses made of the other 
ccTLDs. This addresses should be free as per old restrictions. This would 
allow bi-lateral international concerns to be addressed. Let say that as a 
French I want to know everything on franco-canadian relations, business, 
tourisme, administrative rules, tourisme, etc... I would go straight to 
http://ca.fr  Hotels information would be at http://hotel.ca.fr . think 
this might help a lot to strength the relations between ccTLDs and lead 
them into more stable a rewarding activities. This is part of the 
DNServices concept I support. A regional cooperation would be helped a lot 
through these more local 9 areas.

3. I lobby for avery proposition and decision to include a part decribing 
how it may help reducing the lingual, the digital and the financial divides.

I suppose that no one has to be detailed how these three propositions might 
help in the long task of reducing the lingual, the digital and the 
financial divides.
