Respectfully, I would disagree. The IDNO is struggeling to do so and have shown that it CAN be done, although it is difficult. But as JFK said in a speech to congress shortly after being elected president of the United States regarding going to the moon, "We don't do this because it is easy, we do it because it is hard". I think as do all of our members that the DNSO experiance/experiment thus far has been creditability challenged because of it's failure to be open from the beginning, as has ICANN thus far. Openness and transparency in a self organizing process is essential in order to have a Trusted and acceptable result. The WTO is just not figuring this out, and the hard way. > > > Harald A > > -- > Harald Tveit Alvestrand, EDB Maxware, Norway > [EMAIL PROTECTED] Regards, -- Jeffrey A.
