Despite posturing to the contrary, the IANA is not in a 
position to unilaterally decide who or what gets added
to the public root.  If they were, it would have already
happend -- and it has *not*!

We are in the middle of a transition from an old Internet
to a new Internet.  How the new Internet is governed is now
on the table, and the U.S. Gov't has accepted the responsibility
to make sure that the transition is a smooth one.  

The Secretary of Commerce's Office should be issuing a Notice of Inquiry 
any day now.  This is the process where the true decisions will be made.  
Stay tuned . . .
