The Commerce Department would seem to disagree with you. In its reply to
Bliley, at
http://www.ntia.doc.gov/ntiahome/domainname/blileyrsp.htm
it says "the terms are used interchangeably":
"The White Paper listed a number of tasks to be undertaken on a priority
basis.
First, the creation and organization of a new, not-for-profit
corporation to manage the DNS. The White Paper anticipated the need for
an interim or initial (the terms are used interchangeably) Board of
Directors of the new, not-for-profit corporation to carry out specific
tasks expeditiously. The interim board was to establish a system for
electing the Board of Directors the new corporation and complete its
organization in accordance with the White Paper principles."
