Vince -
NSI is an American corporation
that owns Internic, currently the
only fully functioning Domain Name
Registry. NSI is controlled by a
defense contractor Corp called SAIC
which has extremely close ties to
the Pentagon, CIA, NSA and the American
Government.
No-one will support thie organization
becoming the protector of "." the
undefined root. This function has
to be adopted by a non-profit, fully
international, democratic organization
not a group of US generals.
