Domain Sherpa, a well-known website that features video interviews with domain investment industry leaders, has now made available an interview with ICA Counsel Philip Corwin. Titled “ICA: The Domain Name Trade Association That Represents Your Financial Interests – With Philip Corwin”, the interview can be accessed at http://www.domainsherpa.com/phil-corwin-ica-interview/ .
The interview was conducted in December 2012 – coincidentally, it took place on the same day that the Department of Commerce issued its decision to approve continued operation of the .Com registry by VeriSign, but subject to a 6-year wholesale price freeze. The interview covers such topics as the .com registry agreement decision; major issues facing domain investors at ICANN and in Washington; the status, opportunities, and risks of the new gTLD program; and the history and purpose of the ICA.
