How would ISOC run the .ORG registry?
If its proposal is accepted by ICANN, ISOC proposes to form a not-for-profit corporation called Public Interest Registry (“PIR”). PIR will be a separate corporation, with its directors named by ISOC ISOC also proposes the formation of a .ORG Advisory Council to be composed of prominent members of the noncommercial community. The Advisory Board would provide policy advice on major .ORG domain management issues. Also, ISOC/PIR proposes the establishment of community input and discussion mechanisms on its Web site. PIR will contract with Afilias, a company with a proven back-office registry system. Under PIR’s direction, Afilias would handle the .ORG registry’s back end (including database services, zone file generation, customer service, technical support, and so on). Contracting with a proven partner like Afilias is necessary, since the new operator of .ORG must have a demonstrated capability to operate a registry of significant scale in a stable and effective manner. Afilias is an ISOC
