Summary
Board approves the redelegation approved redelegation of the .bm domain to the Registrar General of Bermuda.

Text

Barbara Roseman advised that the request from Bermuda for redelegation was well supported. On 8 May 2007, IANA received a request for the redelegation of the .BM (Bermuda) top-level domain. The .BM domain was originally delegated in March 1993 to Bermuda College. A request for the delegation of .BM was submitted in August 2003. A letter from the Government of Bermuda supported the request, however the request was ultimately closed in March 2005 due to a lack of supplemental documentation. The change does not involve changes to the authoritative name servers for .BM, as the proposed recipient of the delegation, which is the Registrar General of Bermuda.Text, is already the de facto manager of the .BM domain. Staff recommended that the Board approve the re-delegation.

Steve Goldstein moved and Bruce Tonkin seconded the following resolution:

Whereas, the .BM top-level domain is the designated country-code for Bermuda;

...

Whereas, ICANN has reviewed the request, and has determined that the proposed redelegation would be in the best interest of the local and global Internet communities.

It is hereby RESOLVED resolved (07.81), that the proposed redelegation of the .BM domain to the Registrar General of Bermuda is approved.

A voice vote was taken of all Board Members present and the motion was approved unanimously by a vote of 14-0.
