> LACNIC: A Story Still Under Construction
> On 31 October 2002, LACNIC was officially ratified by the ICANN Board at ICANN14 in Shanghai as a Regional Internet Registry, having complied with the stages and conditions established by the ICP-2 global policy.
>
> This was the first time that this policy was implemented. The drivers of the process worked hard to demonstrate to the Internet community that the Latin American and the Caribbean (LAC) region had the necessary technical capabilities and the support of a community of operators who trusted that we could play that role.
>
> In a few weeks, we'll celebrate our 15th anniversary. The next LACNIC 28 event in Montevideo will be a new occasion to celebrate. Like each of the previous events, it will be an opportunity to endorse that mandate with an increasingly large and diverse community - more than 6,000 associated entities - that challenges us to evolve at a rapid pace.
>
> Everyone's work has contributed to our rich history. Let's continue to create the history that our region needs.
>
> Ernesto Majó
> Deputy Executive Director, Latin American and Caribbean Internet Address Registry (LACNIC)

> "Statistical Analysis of DNS Abuse in gTLDs" Report Available for Public Comment Until 19 September 2017
> The Competition, Consumer Trust, and Consumer Choice Review Team[r20.rs6.net] (CCTRT) requested the study to measure rates of common forms of abusive activities in the Domain Name System (DNS) - such as spam, phishing, and malware distribution. The study compares rates of these activities between new and legacy generic top-level domains (gTLDs). It also employs inferential statistical analysis to measure the effects of DNS Security Extensions (DNSSEC), domain parking, and registration restrictions on abuse rates. The analysis uses historical data from the first three full years of the New gTLD Program (2014-2016). Learn more and submit your comments here[r20.rs6.net].

> Universal Acceptance Issue: Report the Problem
> The Universal Acceptance (UA) Steering Group (UASG) is a community initiative supported by the ICANN organization formed to educate and ensure that systems are UA-aware. UA-readiness means that Internet-enabled applications, devices, and system can successfully recognize all domain names, including IDNs and new gTLDs. If you find a webpage or application that is not UA-ready, report it here[r20.rs6.net]. The UASG will pursue resolution options, and this information will help them to drive UA-readiness globally.
