Re: A little off topic: was NSI Domain Name Dispute Stats

Hi Roeland,

Actually I think my proposal would break most use of the Internet,
commercial or not.

The reason I made the suggestion was to demonstrate to some people
on the list that a technology might support a certain type of use, but
if significant numbers of people won't use that technology that way,
it won't be used.  Also, I'm trying to illustrate that the people who
frequent these lists, for the most part, are hard-working
professionals who are bound by the ethics and accepted practices of
their profession.  There seems to be a feeling among some folks that
the Internet professionals are a closed sect who make arbitrary
decisions and then pronounce them as laws, with no consideration for
anyone but themselves.

I hope I have not provided too much of a distraction.
