First Non-American to Head ICANN
By Roy Mark
Australian Paul Twomey, the incoming president and CEO of ICANN, told reporters Wednesday afternoon his selection as the first non-American to head the organization in charge of the Internet global addressing system represents another step in the maturation of ICANN. Twomey takes over for the outgoing Stuart Lynn on March 27.
"I think it is a reflection of an openness to a full international vision," Twomey said. "Four years ago, the U.S. was clearly the most dominant Internet country. What was an obvious constituency four years is rapidly changing."
