The correct way to fight against a DNS root controlled by someone you don't like is not to propose multiple DNS roots, but rather to campaign for a democratic root.
That campaign has been on-going for quite a few years. It continues to go nowhere. The rest of us are begining to get fed-up with the anti-progress. Kent Crispin repeatedly claims that ICANN is a corporation and not a democratic entity. In this case he is correct. I disagree with him that this is a desired outcome. Crispin and Crocker are of the opinion that (non-democratic) status quo is acceptable.
Auerbach's proposal is not technically sound and is political suicide.
As someone who spoke with Karl before he wrote that proposal, there was a lot involved that wasn't published.
