For the record: the only problem
I have encountered is in having
to endlessly and relentlessly
defend our right to the namespace.
from monopolistic bitheads Our
independant FCN registry pretty
much runs itself. Anyone can
operate a Domain Name Registry
with dial-up access, standard
WWW site set-ups and the help
of a co-operative ISP.
You IETF idiots have not only
lied about technical standards
you have wildly exagerated the
level of expertise necessary
as well. I suspect this will be
just another reason for your
immanent collective downfall.
Fuck you you pompous pig Valdis
and the rest of you too. Orlando
my ass! I will return. And heavan
help you all when I do.
