ICANN’s gradual transition to a new website began yesterday. According to ICANN Vice President Chris Gift, the developers had three main goals: ensuring greater transparency of the corporation through complete and rapid user access to all materials, attracting new online community members for cooperation and providing all interested parties with new tools. During the website’s beta testing, the developers incorporated a significant number of comments by members of the Internet community.
The number of users redirected to the new version of the website when they visit the icann.org website will grow daily over the next two weeks. Later all the traffic will be crossed over to the new website.
