Colleagues, I wonder if we've overlooked this rather important concern about the use of hyphens in domain name labels?

The American Hyphen Society is a community-based, not-for-profit, grass-roots consciousness-raising/education-research alliance that seeks to help effectuate the across-the-board self-empowerment of wide-ranging culture-, nationality-, ethnicity-, creed-, gender-, and sexual-orientation defined identity groups by excising all multiculturally-less-than-sensitive terminology from the English language, and replacing it with counter-hegemonic, cruelty-, gender-, bias-, and, if necessary, content-free speech. The society's motto is "It became necessary to destroy the language in order to save it." Its headquarters are in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. Seems perfectly alinged to ICANN's mission. --bill
