role of Italian Registry to CNR-CNUCE

Organization of the registryOrganization of the registry
The function of “manager” of “.it” is performed inside a department of a research Institute of the National Council of Research; the administrative contact is the Director of the Institute;
Up to December 2003, the regulatory function has been performed by an external organization composed by experts in DNS, called Naming Authority; in this way, the registry didn’t have direct responsibility of the rules applied;
A transition is on going: the constituencies of the Local Internet Community have selected their representatives to form a committee for the rules (policy board) acting under the umbrella of the registry; that committee will include representatives of the government;
The constitution of an independent entity, with the participation of CNR, is under evaluation.
