This is an increasingly important topic, especially as the international debate over internet governance heats up. Many countries are challenging ICANN's U.S. government-designated control over Internet governance. There is a good article at Foreign Affairs about a bit of the history, and Zonk over at Slashdot has posted a number of articles about the issue. Searching Google News will also lead to a trove of source material. An article at the Reg also contains good info. It should be quite easy to pull together a comprehensive well-referenced article on Internet governance history and the current issues.

 * 4) Has been all over the news recently, current article simply says "Internet governance has been a heated issue between many different nations." I would expect such a topic to be where Wikipedia excels. the wub  "?!"  11:28, 17 November 2005 (UTC)
