IPv4 Exhaustion Announcement and Press Conference: Watch Live

[Apologies for duplicate emails]

Dear colleagues,

On Thursday, 3 February 2011, at 14:30 (UTC), the Number Resource 
Organization (NRO), along with the Internet Corporation for Assigned 
Names and Numbers (ICANN), the Internet Society (ISOC) and the Internet 
Architecture Board (IAB) will be holding a ceremony and press conference 
to make a significant announcement and to discuss the global transition 
to the next generation of Internet addresses.

Much has been written in the international media over the last few weeks 
about the dwindling pool of IPv4 Internet addresses, and this topic will 
be addressed at the event.

We invite everyone to view the webcast of this event at:

The event will take place at the Intercontinental Hotel in Miami on 
Thursday. There will be limited public seating available to attend (with 
press receiving seating priority) in Room “Concourse II” at 09:30 EST 
for the ceremony and 10:00 EST for the press conference which follows.

Regards,

Axel Pawlik
