Roeland, I'm impressed with the creativity of your multiple
interpretations, particularly since they have nothing to do with anything I
said.
1. You use a style of logic which says that if one is not in favor of one
thing, then one must be in favor of another other, no matter how extreme or
unfounded the second and no matter how many other possible positions are
available. While I realize that some folks have taken great delight in
demonizing the ICANN activity, it is rather far from being an incarnation
of the devil, and has rather more global support than the devil. More
significantly is that we are somewhere in the vicinity of the SIXTH round
of "starting" over the past FIVE years, and one must note that the
continuing effort to demand perfection serves only to ensure that we attain
the opposite. That certainly is the current evidence, since users continue
to provided no competition from which to choose service, do they?
2. A desire to move NSI out of an unregulated monopoly position contains
no indication of desire that NSI go out of business or otherwise be
"crushed". It is facinating that you would take a desire for level
competitive field and interpret it in such a fashion. Facinating, but not
helpful.
