Yes, there seems to be something in common here. Far not everything, however.
First, now we ( ISPs ) have a pretty simple dilemma: A) we ( I mean the
_Which_ ISPs? I mean, ISPs in _what_ country? Russia?
Association ) takes the control or B) our government does it.
_Which_ government? Russian?
Do you need any more comments ?
Oh, yea, am I getting you right that in order to deal with your government you need to take all of FSU with you? (BTW that's what Dima Burkov said during Moscow meeting). I repeat it for the n-th time now: If you substitute "Russia" for "CIS" everywhere, then all your arguments and viewpoints become much stronger. Maybe it's beneficial to do this at last?
V> I want to make clear for the audience the real reason of this "independance V> movement": MONOPOLIZATION OF IP NETWORK ADDRESSES ASSIGNMENT IN RUSSIA AND OTHER CIS V> COUNTRIES BY ROSNIIROS (RIPN). V> RIPN had already monopolized the domain name delegation under ".ru", and the only V> thing this they doesn't hove at this time is control under the network addresses.
Nope. Here you are wrong. RIPN had monopolized RU. Internic had monopolized COM, NET, ORG and EDU. RIPE had monopolized a big block of IP address space. God had monopolized the Universe. How far it is possible to get thinking that way ?
Yeah, but God had already existed when I was born or so they say. And I had not chance to express my consent w.r.t. His existence. Do you want to create another God? ;)))))
V> If they receive this control, can you imagine the amount of money that will be V> "informally" squezeed from russian LIR's for the good relationship from the RIPN V> side? I can.
It always was a favorite habit of some kind of people -- to dream about money in a neighbour's pocket. Was that an argument?
If these money come from my pocket, then I'll probably ask what I've paid for.
