http://news.com.com/2008-7347-5092590.html Quotes Stratton Sclavos: "The DDOS (distributed denial-of-service) attacks last October on the root system--hey, there are 13 global copies of that, and they're all operating. It should scare people that nine of the 13 went down. It's time for the Internet infrastructure to go commercial. On the core services of the infrastructure, it's time to pull the root servers away from volunteers who run them out of a university or lab or some other level. That's going to be an unpopular decision."
Methinks that one comment is going to make them even more hated then Microsoft or SCO (who both rank right up there with being universally despised on the Internet). They are digging themselves a grave thats a few miles deep. Lets hope ICANN sees this and makes the right decision on how to deal with this growing problem. I'm going to play journalist for a while and make some calls. I'll let you know what kind of 'official' statements I can drag out of these idiots. -------------------------- Brian Bruns The Summit Open Source Development Group Open Solutions For A Closed World / Anti-Spam Resources http://www.sosdg.org ICQ: 8077511
