ICANN Meeting Passes on .com, .xxx decisions

Posted by Hemos on from the the-glaciers-in-town-moved-faster dept.

Rob writes "As the Internet Corp for Assigned Names and Numbers wound up its annual meeting in Vancouver yesterday it was inactions that were still causing all the controversy. Major decisions on the .com and .xxx domains had been postponed until next year, as the domain name management body seeks to balance the interests of governments and commercial domain name organizations."

    But what is considered "xxx" type material? Do we have to follow the American view of what is adult content? And if the Christian Right finally gains full control of the U.S. government, do people around the world have to conform to the Protestent extremists view?
