The ITU General Secretariat has launched a proceeding
on its role involving the Internet and DNS. This was
contained in a 21 Oct 1999 Circular Letter from the
ITU Secretary-General to the ITU's Member governments.
It touches upon a great many areas and implicates
a number of fundamental issues concerning the ITU's
jurisdiction and authority.
The US Dept of State is recirculating the circular
information and soliciting inputs by a yet undetermined
process.
Most of the material is non-public ITU material. However,
everything can be found under Sec. 3 at the wia.org site
