[ga] TLD Replay
If you want to see the decision again, go to the The Berkman Center for
Internet & Society (http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/icann/la2000/archive/).
Scroll down to the Board Meeting, November 16 and launch the RealVideo
Archive. Then, fast-forward to 06:08:00. Watch as Vint Cerf goes into
"attack-mode" and rallies against Joe Sims, Louis Touton, and Hans
Kraaijenbrink. See the expressions from Touton and Sims when they realize
that Afilias isn't going to get the .web TLD.
For another perspective, open the Real-Time Chat Log
(http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/icann/la2000/archive/chatlog-111600.html) and
do a search for: "Oh. My." (Christopher Ambler) and read the chat dialogue
after you've seen the video. Note the reactions of the general public to
the whole thing! It seems that Touton and company seriously misread the
Board and that things didn't quite go as planned.
