Registration is now open for VeriSign’s North
American Registrar Days to be held at VeriSign’s Corporate Headquarters,
Mountain View, CA. A few times each year, VeriSign brings together
registrars to share the latest data and information around the trends,
research, products and services that are affecting our industry and
how to maximize the opportunities that it provides. We continue
with that goal in Mountain View, with a special focus on issues affection
the North American region. We intend these events to be an important
communication exchange as we seek to continually enhance our offerings
and service to you, our customers.
Deep in the Heart of Silicon Valley
Taking place at VeriSign’s Mountain View location,
from September 19-21, this will be a data rich event, with presentations
and information designed to provide practical information that can be
used to help achieve your business goals for 2006 and beyond.
Please pass along to the colleagues who would best benefit from participating

Don’t forget to tell your technical team about the Engineering Symposium on September
19, 2006—Same Location!
Just prior to the Registrar Days event, VeriSign
is also hosting another Engineering Symposium targeted to a registrar’s
technical team. Designed to educate and enhance implementation
and operational issues, these meetings have been successful in fostering
open communication between registrars and VeriSign’s engineering/ technical
teams and have lead to the development of multiple technical improvements.
We are developing an agenda with specific presentations around EPP Migration,
Name Store and new product implementations as well as reporting and
other topics. For this one day event, we encourage your technical
teams to participate.
