I'm having fun figuring out how altering BIND (since I assume that is the basis of their arguements) rises to the level of conspiracy... IANAL, obviously.
I read you loud and clear. I believe most rational people among us do, see below. .... <sarcasm> Oh my, a vendor that actually listens to the cryout of its customers. That cannot be tolerated. </sarcasm> This, in my own humble opinion, climbs slowly but surely to the levels of being ridiculous. Paul did exactly what any good vendor would do. If many customers or users asked for a feature, the vendor would issue the feature. It is the administrators choice to use the feature. As such, it is not the vendors fault in any way. After the courts drop this one as well, I am curious what will be the next Verisign idea. They (read: their lawyers) have proved themselves to be full of bright ideas (that lead to a dead end due to irrationality), and I am curious to see what's next. happy sailing, --Ariel
