[FONT=verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Former Director of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security's National Cybersecurity Center Rob Beckstrom is in Sydney attending ICANN's 35th international meeting.
Although Beckstrom hasn't yet been confirmed as ICANN's new CEO, contract negotiations between him and his future employer are known to be in the final stages. Barring any last-minute disaster, Beckstrom should be confirmed as new CEO, possibly as early as the ICANN Board meeting scheduled for this coming Friday (June 26th).
Beckstrom has so far kept his presence in Sydney very low-key. He will spend the week getting to know members of the ICANN staff and community in private meetings and won't appear in any public capacity before being officially named as CEO.
Beckstrom is an avid user of the latest Internet technologies. He runs a blog and a Twitter page.[/FONT]
