* more TLD (may be a false problem or not, depending on the actual number. I was shocked at the DNS meeting to hear a participant making repeated references to one million TLD, a ridiculous number, that could never be reached, due to ICANN constraints
Similar comments must have been made about TLDs, and the hosts file before that (they were right for the host files), but I wasn't around back then.
So, there is little a technical WG like the DNS WG could say about these reports. The question is so badly phrased that noone can really reply to it.
That, in itself, would be a comment. "In our humble opinion, the report you commissioned is not adequate technical input for future policy discussions, and will likely lead to wrong conclusions" doesn't read very nice, but it's certainly a message the WG should send if it reaches consensus on it. (Disclaimer: I haven't read the report, and your list of conflated issues doesn't make me want to.) -- Florian Weimer <fweimer@bfk.de> BFK edv-consulting GmbH http://www.bfk.de/ Kriegsstraße 100 tel: +49-721-96201-1 D-76133 Karlsruhe fax: +49-721-96201-99
