FCN as an alpha FREENIC *was* a
reality. We had the prototype
.FCN DNR server taking intitial
registrations. FCN utilized the
free LINUX OS, some excellent
code written by my very brilliant
collegue Gard Abrahamson (visit
<http://www.scriba.org>), a stock
Pentium, and 128 ISDN connection.
We were working towards a fully
automated process adding more
registries, domains and capabilities
as time progressed.
.FCN was put on hold as a result of
all this chaos out here but make no
mistake: we who believe the net must
be free will not surrender. And make
no mistake: millions of people also
believe the Internet, including IP
number allocation, domain name regis-
tration and Governance should be free
or as close to free as possible. And
we cannot be ignored as the pack of
thieves shoving all this IAHC nonsense
down our throats is attempting.
The longer freedom loving people
are ignored the more likely and
the more expressive the inevitable
net.backlash is going to be. You
try and control 87 registrars. You
can't ever control 60 million free
citizans. Critical fact.
