| From: <hans.klein@pubpolicy.gatech.edu> To: <DNSTransition@ntia.doc.gov> Date: Tue, Jun 13, 2006 5:48 PM Subject: Comments on DNS Transition, Docket No. 060519136-6136-01 To the U.S. Department of Commerce: The Internet's value is created by the participation and cooperation of people all over the world. The Internet is global, not national. Therefore no single Government should have a pre-eminent role in Internet governance. As the US reviews its contract with ICANN, it should work cooperatively with all stakeholders to complete the transition to a Domain Name System independent of US governmental control.
